*[http://www.youtube.com/LuigiMario2009 LuigiMario2009]'s "The Super Luigi Show" has many Homestar Runner refrences. In the episode "Back To School", Patamon watches [[being mean]], and replies to Luigi saying: "I'm watching ''Strong Bad Email''!". Also in "Dinoween", once Luigi encounters Reptar, he gets the [[Jibblies 2| jibblies]], he also steals Strong Bad's line: <br />
'''Luigi''': "All the good characters are gone!"<br />
<br />
'''Patamon''': What about Shadow?<br />
<br />
'''Luigi''': "all the GOOD characters!"<br />
<br />
Once Shadow has been eaten, Luigi says:<br />
"Now all the good AND the bad characters are gone!"<br />
<br />
Patamon replies: "eh-hem!",<br />
Luigi states:<br />
"oh sorry, all but one."<br />
Also in "Bad's Look Day", Patamon mention that "stickanie flowers only exist in the Homestar Runner World".<br />
In "My Last 101 Things", Patamon makes impresions of Strong Bad, Homestar, Coach Z and Bubs.<br />

<br />
==Transcript==<br />
''{Homestar is sitting at his hremail desk. He has bags under his eyes and is slouching. He slips further and further down over the next line.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{half-mumbling}'' And that, Gordon Titanamonderous<!--?-->, is why I decided to keep calling you Gordon Titanamonderous...<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{from off-screen}'' Aaah! I can't take this no more! <br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad, screaming.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Somebody hand me a rake!<br />
<br />
''{A rake is handed to Strong Bad. He grabs it and smacks Homestar with it.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Raaaake!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the rake}'' Somebody hand me a shovel!<br />
<br />
''{A shovel is handed to him. He smacks Homestar with it.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Shovel!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{dropping the shovel}'' Somebody hand me a Garden Weasel!<br />
<br />
''{A tool with a very spiky end is handed to Strong Bad. Again, he hits Homestar. Homestar comes back up with a "CENSORED" sign over his face; bruises and a stream of blood can be seen around it.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{calmly}'' Aw, a Weasel.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{wiping his brow}'' Phew.<br />
<br />
''{Pan over to show Marzipan, holding the rake and shovel.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks, Marzipan!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Always happy to help!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the Lappy. Strong Bad sits down in front of it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Sorry, Lappy. My triumphant return to checking emails calls for some fresh blood!<br />
<br />
''{He closes the Lappy, leaving a faint backwards "Lappy 486" in the wall behind it. He pushes it off to the side.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Tech nerds, feast your eyes... on ''Steak Sandwich!''<br />
<br />
''{He places said sandwich on the desk in front of him to a trumpet fanfare. Cut to a solo image of the sandwich.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Steaky Steaky 6 Millenium Edition ''{a steak-shaped logo for this appears in the corner}'' is a processing wonder horse, capable of sauteed onions, ''{a logo for "Sauteed Onions Ghz" appears}'' grilled mushrooms, ''{a logo for "Grilled Mushrooms 32x" appears}'' and all right, never mind.<br />
<br />
''{The Steak logo swivels as though its left side was no longer supported while the other logos fall off the screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' This is just a steak sandwich, isn't it?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a rear view of the desk, as Strong Bad looks at the sandwich.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I guess I'm a little... out-of-practice with this stuff. ''{to the Lappy}'' All right, Lappy, you can stay alive for at least one more week.<br />
<br />
''{He pushes the sandwich aside and returns the Lappy to its rightful position. He opens the Lappy and a startup tone is heard. Cut to behind Strong Bad. The Female Lappy is visible.}''<br />
<br />
'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' Another week with you, Strong Bad, is like 8 dog-weeks in cat-years.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, are you sure you're not Senor Cardgage's computer?<br />
<br />
'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' ''{from offscreen}'' No...<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to show Senor Cardgage standing near Strong Bad, holding the sandwich.}''<br />
<br />
'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' This steak samwich is Beverly ''clearly'' my compooter, Beth-shiba.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{smiling}'' Hey, Cardgage! D'you wanna help me come out of e-tirement?<br />
<br />
'''SENOR CARDGAGE:''' Ummmmm... no.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad lowers his head in disappointment. Senor Cardgage turns around and starts walking in place, while sounds of traffic are heard. Strong Bad looks up in confusion, and starts to nervously lean back.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm quite scared right now.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the Lappy as Strong Bad turns back to it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's start over. ''{types "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Oh, man, I haven't checked my email in so long, I bet there's gonna be a half-zillion messages waiting for me!<br />
<br />
''{He presses Return. The following comes up with a ding: "Oh, smokes! You have 2 new messages!", which are "Coolness" from "Kelly" and "Thanks for loaning me your rake" from "Homestar".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Well, a half-''four'' messages waiting for me isn't bad. ''{He brings up "Coolness".}''<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="email"><div>subject: coolness</div><br />
Dear Strong Bad,<br /><br />
What was the coolest explosion you ever saw?<br /><br />
<br /><br />
From,<br /><br />
Kelly<br /><br />
USA<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad echos his own name. He says Kelly's name in a slightly seductive tone, leading into "USA" as "Oosa".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Mmmm! An exotic lady from the far east! ''{typing}'' That's kind of a vague question don'tcha think? That's like me asking, "Dear Kelly, what's your favorite molecule of air that you've breathed?" ''{not typed}'' Or... ''{clears screen, typing:}'' "What's your favorite Strong Bad muscle that you wanted to rub with hot oils?" You gotta narrow it down somehow. Like, do you wanna know about the coolest looking explosion I ever rigged up in Strong Sad's org-ethnic breakfast pouch on a Tuesday?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the kitchen of the Brothers Strong. Strong Bad is eating from a cereal bowl with a spoon. Strong Sad is standing next to him, wearing a tuxedo, and looking expectantly at a toaster.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{poorly acting}'' Mmm. This cereal is sooooo cerealy.<br />
<br />
''{The toaster pops up a breakfast pastry with a conspicuous red light on it. Strong Sad catches it. Over the next line, the light begins to blink faster and faster while making ticking noises.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, child! I am gonna enjoy this saag paneer "Pop-Tart with a Vengeance"! Then I've got to go stand around in this tuxedo with a ven&mdash; OOOHHH!!<br />
<br />
''{The Pop-Tart explodes into green goo, which gets all over Strong Sad and leaves a green stain on the wall behind him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Waa-ha-ha-ha!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Or do you wanna know like, the coolest explosion I ever saw that had one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings around it that've become so popular lately.<!-- sic, I know it should be a question mark --><br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad in his bathroom, holding a newspaper.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' 'Cuz I've caused ''plenty'' of those.<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But the coolest part was actually later on, when I was telling Coach Z all about it.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the Athletic Field. Strong Bad is talking to Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' And so first, there was this little explosion, that was like "Doooooosh!" ''{some drops of spit fly away from him toward Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Ya don't say?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' And then secondary charges blew and it was like, "Ka-plssshhhhh!" ''{more drops of spit fly toward Coach Z}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' You say?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' And finally one of those blast-wavy Saturn rings that've become so popular lately shot out, and was like "PSSSSSSHHHHH!!!!" <br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad draws out the explosion. A wave of spit drops fly toward Coach Z. Coach Z pulls out a bar of soap and a bottle of "PORT PLUS +". He rubs the soap on his body and dumps some shampoo over his hat. He then tosses the bottle away and rubs his hat, which becomes sudsy.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Thanks for the great story, Strong Bad! I was gonna hit the showers, but now I don't has<!--sic--> to!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad spits a few more drops toward Coach Z. Cut back to the Lappy.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Everybody knows that the more spit it takes to describe an explosion, the cooler said explosion was. ''And'' the cooler said explosion-talker-abouter is!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Sad talking to Coach Z in the Athletic Field.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And then my saag paneer Pop-Tart said it like... "Ptoo."<br />
<br />
''{A single large drop of spit flies toward Coach Z.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{angrily}'' Are you kiddin' me? I can't even warsh my hands with that mess!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the Lappy.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But if history has taught us anything, then we all know that the coolest explosions have come from my very own computers.<br />
<br />
''{A quick montage results where the Tandy explodes, throwing Strong Bad back, Strong Bad knocks the Tandy off the desk with an inexplicable explosion, Bub's shotgun blows a hole in the Compy, Strong Mad gulps from a mini-explosion from the Compy, and the Tandy explodes in a green pixelated mushroom cloud with Homestar nearby. Cut back to the Lappy, with the female Lappy visible.}''<br />
<br />
'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' But waimt<!--sic-->, Strong Bad, does that means<!--sic-->?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm afraid so, sweet Lappy. I figured that USB self-destruct button I bought a couple weeks ago woulda clued you in.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a closeup of a big red button with "dooj" written on it, connected to the Lappy via USB. Then cut to a rear view of the desk.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' But... it's time. ''{Cut to behind Strong Bad}'' Why wait around for someone else to blow up your computer tomorrow when you can blow it up yourself today?<br />
<br />
'''FEMALE LAPPY 486:''' You should put that on your bwees-ness cards.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{mock-sadly}'' That's a great idea, Lappy. ''{cut to rear view of the desk}'' Good bye. ''{presses the button}'' Dooj.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a silhouette of the house with a tree beside it. The explosion knocks the tree away and blows the roof clear of the house. Two of those shockwaves appear as part of the explosion. A ghostly image of the Female Lappy icon with fangs appears in the explosion.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' So popular lately.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Bubs and Coach Z on lawn chairs, watching the explosion.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Oooooor! Awwwwwr! <br /><br />
'''BUBS:''' Ooooooh! Awwwwww!<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' I can't wait till Strong Bad tells me 'bout that one. I'm'a go ahead and strip down to da nude!<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' ''{pointing at Coach Z}'' Ponk!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Bad, standing next to the desk. Strong Bad himself is unharmed, but the desk it broken in two from the explosion, and the paint has been torn away.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' And now that&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{poking in from the side}'' Don't call it a comeback.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;is what I call&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Don't call it a comeback.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;a&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears off the side and reappears upside-down}'' Don't call it a comeback.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{jumping forward on his knee}'' &mdash;comeback!<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{disappears and reappears rightside-up, makes an annoyed sigh}''<br />
<br />
''{Homestar disappears while Strong Bad looks upward.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, if a paper survived that, maybe come down... now?<br />
<br />
''{Black ashes fall from the top of the screen. Strong Bad looks down at them.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh. Looks like I need a new one of those, too.<br />
<br />
==Easter Eggs==<br />
*When the [[Lappy]] tells [[Strong Bad]] to put his catch phrase about computer destruction on his "bwees-ness" cards, click "bwees-ness card" to see a business card for a computer destruction business.<br />
*At the end, click on the hole in the wall to see an exchange between [[Strong Sad]] as the Gardenboy from [[yes, wrestling]] and [[The Announcer]].<br />
<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*In his flashback, Strong Bad knocks the broken [[Tandy 400]] off his desk to an explosion. There was no such explosion in [[invisibility]].<br />
* In [[virus]], the virus caused everything to become corrupted. As part of the corruption, Bubs' shotgun resembled Homestar's leg. However, in the flashback, the shotgun is clearly still a shotgun even before the [[Compy 386]] is shot.<br />
* Strong Bad's line "Uh, if a paper survived that, come down now" and the ensuing black paper falling from the sky is most likely to avoid announcing a winner of the [[email thunder|fight between the two papers]]. However, Strong Bad is less sad of the paper that burnt's fate than he was in [[the paper]], indicating that it was probably the [[New Paper]].<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*When homestar is hit with the garden weasel, his face is still visible. The bruises, scars, and blood only appear ''after'' the camera zooms in.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*[[Onomatopoeia|Dooj]], As the USB Self-destruct button reads, Is a common sound effect used for explosions in the Homestar Runner Universe.<br />
*The scene of Bubs and Coach Z in the field is reminiscent of [[Happy Fireworks]], in which the two watched [[fireworks]] in a similar fashion.<br />
*The Easter Egg the end of the toon is a reference to the email [[yes, wrestling]], in which Strong Sad takes on the wrestling persona of the Gardenboy.<br />
*The entire toon is about [[explosions]].<br />
*Strong Bad [[Strong Bad Smiling|smiles]] when Senor Cardgage first shows up in his house.<br />
*Although it is censored, you can still see that [[Homestar Runner]] [[Blood|bleeds]] after being hit with the third garden tool by Strong Bad.<br />
*The scene in which Strong Bad introduces his "new computer" is a reference to how he introduced the [[Lappy 486]] in the email [[animal]].<br />
*Coach Z's use of Port Plus is a reference to [[Jibblies 2]], where he asked the [[Horrible Painting]] for some.<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*Senor Cardgage's "Beverly clearly" is a reference to children's author [[Wikipedia:Beverly Cleary|Beverly Cleary]].<br />
*Strong Bad's "Dooj" button resembles the "Easy" button from commercials for [[Wikipedia:Staples Inc.|Staples]], an office supply chain.<br />

<div>[[Image:Flashfight.PNG|thumb|In Charge of Stuff!!]]<br />
<br />
'''Admiral Flashfight''' is the most powerful member of the [[Cheat Commandos]], if he can be referred to as one. He is a representative of the Bureau of Elite Fighting Forces (alternatively, the Bureau of Every Elite Fighting Force) and speaks with a British accent. His name sounds similar to the word "flashlight", which makes the fact he owns a flashlight less than surprising. <br />
<br />
His first true appearance in an episode of Cheat Commandos was in [[2 Part Episode: Part 1]], in which he took an active role in the way the unit worked. He fired [[Silent Rip]], [[Gunhaver]], and [[Crackotage]] from the roster, and arrested the [[Blue Laser Commander]]. Despite the Cheat Commandos now being actually successful, the fired members were unsatisfied and plotted against him. In the following sequel [[2 Part Episode: Part 2]], he was shot by Gunhaver in which he thought he was wearing the bulletproof vest when [[Reinforcements]] was actually wearing it. He apparently likes dressage.<br />
<br />
He seems to be a parody of G.I. Joe's [[Wikipedia:Hawk (G.I. Joe)|General Hawk]].<br />

<div>[[Image:reynolds_office.png|thumb|"Are you here to bring me the slightest morsel?"]]<br />
'''[[Reynold]]'s Office''' appeared in Parts [[2 Part Episode: Part 1|1]] and [[2 Part Episode: Part 2|2]] of<br />
"2 Part Episode," in which it was used as a holding cell for [[Blue Laser Commander]]. It is located in the [[Cheat Commandos HQ]], and inside the room's left wall is the HQ's battery compartment. The room is colored gray and green, has a large, barred metal door, and features a toilet and sink, both of which leak some sort of green liquid. The part of the battery cover that's inside has a crude drawind of gunhaver, with his arms bent in diffferent positions and his tongue sticking out. When gunhaver broke in, he was in the exact same position. For unknown reasons, Reynold is often trapped in here, and apparently deprived of food. Over the course of [[2 Part Episode: Part 1]], Reynold and Blue Laser Commander were kept in the office for at least three months.<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Image:ProFruitboarder.png|thumb|"Time to shred some serious air with my totally gelatinous bromide Gel-Arshie!"]]<br />
<br />
'''Gel-Arshie's Pro Fruitboarder''' is a mini-game by [[Videlectrix]] from ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]'s'' [[8-Bit Is Enough]], starring [[Gel-Arshie]]. It is also one of the video game locations accessed via the [[Videlectrix Mainframe]].<br />
<br />
Gel-Arshie surfs across the screen on a board of some sort. He can jump into the air, and perform tricks while airborne. Catching fruit causes Gel-Arshie to glow, which slows down his rate of fall. Grabbing fruit while doing a trick scores more points &mdash; the multiplier depends on which trick is being performed. There are a total of fifteen trick moves.<br />
<br />
At the same time, Professor Pineapple moves along the right-hand side of the screen, shooting pineapple slices at Gel-Arshie. If Gel-Arshie is glowing, being hit removes his glow. If he is not glowing, Gel-Arshie loses a life.<br />

<br />
==Scoring==<br />
Each piece of fruit scores a number of points equal to the current fruit count times the current trick multiplier. For example, the twelfth piece of fruit picked up, while no trick is being performed, scores twelve points. If a kickflip is being performed, it scores sixty points &mdash; that is, twelve times five. Being hit by a pineapple or landing on the ground resets the fruit count, while making any action clears the trick multiplier.<br />
<br />
A score of 20,000 is required for maximum awesomeness. Getting too high of a score will make the game crash, but can only be done by changing the game settings through the Videlectrix Mainframe. This overly-high score will not count towards your awesomeness.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*Of all the tricks in this game, only tailgrab, nosegrab and kickflip are real trick names, and all three are performed correctly by Gel-Arshie.<br />
*180 and 360 are also terms used in the real world, but the tricks they are applied to (180 reckless flail and 360 flapjack) do not exist, and 180s and 360s generally involve the board moving with the rider, unlike how Gel-Arshie performs the stunts.<br />
*The images of gel-ashie are similar to that of cool spot surfing.<br />

==Transcript==<br />
''{Open to a view of Gunhaver, Crackotage, Silent Rip walking in a swamp. The title "Two Part Episode: Part Two" appears, with "written on the john by A. Chimendez". The three start walking out the swamp and on to the Topplegangers' Hideout.}''<br />
<br />
'''SILENT RIP:''' You sure this is where the Topplegangers' Hideout is?<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' I hope so. If not, we're surrounded by an entirely different rag-tag band of mercenaries.<br />
<br />
''{Danger Music plays, four Topplegangers appear (silhouetted) from the bushes.}''<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' All together now boys.<br />
<br />
'''ALL:''' ''{groans}'' Gulp!<br />
<br />
''{Subtlefuge walks out of the bushes}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Well, if it isn't my good twin brother, Crapotage. And a couple of Cheat Commandos. ''{pronounced co-mon-dos}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Crackotage next to Silent Rip}''<br />
<br />
'''CRACKOTAGE:''' Not anymore, Subtlefuge. We're on our own.<br />
<br />
'''SILENT RIP:''' And we need your help to break into the Headquarters Playset and free Blue Laser.<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' And how do we know this isn't a trap?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Gunhaver melting with his boxers full of lips on it showing.}''<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' I've been wearing these same boxers for three ''{Crackotage and Silent Rip get disturbed expressions}'' days!<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Subtlefuge}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Eeeenngghh. I'm convinced. You might as well meet the rest of the Topplegangers.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a scene with one of the Topplegangers, the Toppleganger is wearing glasses, also has a mustache, and has a gray skin color, wearing a pink shirt saying "BAD GUY", with a German helmet with a skull on it.}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Dryghost.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to another scene with another Toppleganger, who has 2 scars, a green mohawk, a blue skin color, a chain around his chest, and a black coat.}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Swampslash.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to another scene with just trees, then a Toppleganger comes out of [[Hammerspace]], the Toppleganger has colorful clown hair, has a normal Cheat skin color, all his Cheat spots have many colors, and paint around his eyes, cheeks, and mouth, and is wearing a grenade belt with four grenades on it.}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Fudgeclank.<br />
<br />
'''FUDGECLANK:''' ''{laughs as a clown}''<br />
<br />
''{The Topplegangers all walk up into a group.}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE''': Each is sold separately with rifle and gear.<br />
<br />
''{The "[[Cheap as Free]]" logo appears in the bottom left corner, cut to another scene at the outside of the Cheat Commandos HQ, zooming in to the inside.}''<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' And then we all reverse flank, drop trou, and the insurgents should surrender! Any questions?<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Fightgar and Firebert.}''<br />
<br />
'''FIGHTGAR:''' Yeah, can we let Blue Laser out so maybe we can have some fun for once?<br />
<br />
''{Fightgar and Firebert start laughing.}''<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Uh-uh! Don't make me have to fire YOU, Firebert. I'd hate to waste such an exquisite commando name!<br />
<br />
'''FIREBERT:''' ''{Sad The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Reynold and Blue Laser Commander in Reynold's office, a picture of Gunhaver is on the wall}''<br />
<br />
'''REYNOLD:''' And I'd like to submit a formal request for you to shut your face whenever it's convenient for you, and if not, then no problem!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Aw, come on! Really let 'er rip!<br />
<br />
'''REYNOLD:''' I'll tear off your face! I'll tear it right off! I'll tear your face off and wear it to town!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Whoa! Struck a nerve there, eh, little Scrawnjob?<br />
<br />
'''REYNOLD:''' Mmmm, Scrawnjob! I like the sound of that.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Subtlefuge and the ex-Cheat Commandos, a blueprint of the Cheat Commandos playset is laid out}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Here are the plans!<br />
<br />
'''SILENT RIP:''' Where did you get those?!<br />
<br />
'''DRYGHOST:''' We've had 'em for a while. I got the headquarters playset for my Bar Mitzvah.<br />
<br />
'''SWAMPSLASH:''' It looks like this rear battery cover leads to the holding cell.<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' Then that's our way in!<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' We'll take the Ramshanckle!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the Topplegangers and former Commandos in a beat up boat with a cannon on top.}''<br />
<br />
'''SINGERS:''' It's the Ramshanckle, and you know dang well, it's made out of old vynil jackets that we couldn't sell!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Flashfight and the Cheat Commandos.}''<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Since you've all been working so hard, I have a little surprise for you. Non-Violent Dressage Mishaps Volume 4!<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT FLASHFIGHT:''' ''{groans}''<br />
<br />
'''FIGHTGAR:''' I wanted to watch ponies... fightin'.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the others outside the battery cover.}''<br />
<br />
'''CRACKOTAGE:''' There's the battery cover, but how will we ever get it open?<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' Leave that to Swampslash, our master of disguise. He speaks three different languages, and can blend in anywhere.<br />
<br />
'''SWAMPSLASH:''' ''{dressed as a battery}'' Uh... Charge. Positive. Negative. Rabbit. Um... Lick?<br />
<br />
''{The cover bursts open and everyone starts coughing.}''<br />
<br />
'''SILENT RIP:''' No wonder the electronic lights and sounds stopped working. These batteries haven't been changed since Donnie's twelfth birthday!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Reynold's office}''<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' Sorry Blue Laser, you've stayed in jail for the last time!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Can I get a "''bo''-nus"?!<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' Bonus! Now get out there and make with the evil schemes!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' "Evil scheme" is quite literally my middle name! Its Slovenian!<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' Ha! This terlet has green water in it! A-cool!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to outside battery cover}''<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' ''{as Subtlefuge speaks, Blue Laser Commander walks by smiling}'' Now, there's the little matter of our, um, let me think of it, how do say, you, um, payments.<br />
<br />
'''SILENT RIP:''' ''{looking surprised}'' Oh! Uh... right. How do you feel about defaulted, unpaid, triple mortgages on restaurant spaces?<br />
<br />
'''SUBTLEFUGE:''' It's as good as gold!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Flashfight's share of the Cheat Commandos}''<br />
<br />
'''ANNOUNCER:''' And, once again...<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT FLASHFIGHT:''' ''{gasp}''<br />
<br />
'''ANNOUNCER:''' ...absolutely nothing happened.<br />
<br />
'''ALL BUT FLASHFIGHT:''' Awwww...<br />
<br />
''{Blue Laser Commander appears on screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Attention Cheat Commandos!<br />
<br />
'''ALL:''' ''{gasp}''<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' How did ''he'' get out?!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' You're all ready too late! We've flooded all the country's amusement parks with counterfeit Skee-Ball tickets, causing all the kids' Skee-Ball prizes to sky-rocket!<br />
<br />
'''ALL:''' ''{gasp}''<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Why should the military be concerned with this?<br />
<br />
'''FIGHTGAR:''' You'll never get away with it, Blue Laser!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' Oh, it wasn't my idea. Meet Blue Laser's newest evil mastermind, Scrawnjob!<br />
<br />
''{Danger Music plays, Reynold/Scrawnjob shows up on screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''REYNOLD/SCRAWNJOB:''' That's right, Cheat ComannDON'TS! Say goodbye to those oversized novelty sunglasses! And that boom box was never attainable!<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' So, you've made a game for eight-year-olds slightly more off a rip-off. I still don't see how this should affect global security.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Gunhaver, Silent Rip and Crackotage, who are now in the room.}''<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' Don't you see, Admiral? Without plastic crap to win, kids will have no recourse but to join criminal groups! The world will be overrun with lasers of ''all'' colors!<br />
<br />
'''BLUE LASER COMMANDER:''' ''{halfheartedly}'' Oh no, Gunhaver did his job, rendering me useless through the TV! Bested again by my old nemesis.<br />
<br />
'''ALL:''' Yay!<br />
<br />
'''FLASHFIGHT:''' Oh well. I suppose you two have been ridiculous enough to justify the other's existence. Here, Gunhaver, you can... have gun. ''{gives Gunhaver's gun back to him}''<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER''': Thanks! ''{shoots Flashfight}''<br />
<br />
'''ALL:''' {gasp}<br />
<br />
'''GUNHAVER:''' No, its cool. He's wearin' that bullet-proof vest from earlier.<br />
<br />
''{Reinforcements comes in, wearing the bullet-proof vest.}''<br />
<br />
'''REINFORCEMENTS:''' Hey guys.<br />
<br />
''{Gunhaver looks at Reinforcements with shock.}''<br />
<br />

<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*When Gunhaver bursts into Reynold's Office, the wall he breaks through had a drawing of him on it. He has the same pose and expression as the drawing for a moment.<br />
<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*[[Wikipedia:Dressage|Dressage]] is a style of horse competition, emphasizing the movement and grace of horse and rider.<br />
*A [[Wikipedia:Bar Mitzvah|Bar Mitzvah]] is the coming of age ceremony for Jewish males that takes place at age 13. The female equivalent, Bat Mitzvah, takes place at age 12.<br />

<br />
===Goofs===<br />

<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*[[Pony Fights 2|Pony Fights]] is a reference to [[Commandos in the Classroom]].<br />
*"[[Toilets|Terlet]]" is a reversal of [["Er" pronounced as "Oi"]].<br />
*The Taranchula Easter egg recalls [[Trudgemank]].<br />
*Silent Rip mentions the playset belongs to [[Donnie Chapman|Donnie]].<br />
*Flashfight mentions that Firebert's commando name is "exquisite", a play on the running joke that Firebert is a terrible commando name, begun in [[army]].<br />
*Subtlefuge refers to Crackotage as [[Crap]]otage.<br />
*The battery disguise and the associated sounds are of the same style as those in [[bike thief]].<br />

*Swampslash dresses as a [[battery]].<br />
<br />
===Real World References===<br />
*Reynold threatening to rip Gunhaver's face off and wear it to town is likely a reference to [[Wikipedia:Hannibal Lecter|Hannibal Lecter]] in [[Wikipedia:Silence of the Lambs|Silence of the Lambs]].<br />
*Swampslash mentioning a rabbit while dressed like a battery is a reference to the mascot for [[Wikipedia:Energizer_Bunny|Energizer batteries]].<br />
*The line "Each is sold separately with rifle and gear" is a reference to an '80s A-Team toy commercial. In that commercial, they say the same exact line about the A-Team action figures.<br />

<br />

<br />
== Easter Eggs ==<br />
*Click on "Rock, Rock On" on the final screen to see all the toys again. Click on each toy to see it alone.<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*This commercial serves to introduce all of the Cheat Commandos with the exception of Firebert. He was previously introduced in the Strong Bad email [[army]].<br />
*All of the Cheat Commandos [[Action Figure Character Variations|action figures]] are designed for "Ages 3&ndash;5" and cost [[$11.01]].<br />
*Four quotes from the toon have been used as a [[Quote of the Week]] at some point, more than any other toon to date.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*This cartoon is loaded with exceptions to the once-solid rule of only mentioning "Cheat" with [[Integral Article|"The"]] in front of it. The fact that all the Cheat Commando characters except Firebert can speak normally implies that the writers paid no regard to the source material, as is the case with many cartoons based on toys, comics or video games. <br />
*At the end, Flashfight doesn't have his arm lifted in salute, possibly because he is the commander.<br />
*Although Blue Laser action figures appear in this cartoon, they don't appear packaged in the Easter egg at the end.<br />
*The Blue Laser Minion has angry eyes underneath his visor.<br />
*Gunhaver calls the "Action Figure Storage Truck" by the wrong name. He says "vehicle" instead of "truck".<br />
*When the Cheat Commandos are marching in the TV show, some of them walk by [[Duplicate Characters|twice]].<br />
*All figurines, with the exception of Firebert and Ripberger, are "painted" with the same spot design.<br />
*When Fightgar is firing his laser gun, he appears to change hands as he turns from side to side, firing right-handed, then left-handed, then right again. It is possible he is [[Left Handedness|ambidextrous]].<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*The page title is "[[Compy 386]]!!!", yet this is not an [[Strong Bad Email|email]]. This is likely because The Brothers Chaps used the source html code from an email and forgot to change the title.<br />
*The eyes of the doll are facing different directions.<br />
<!-- The Remarks section of this article already notes that the Commandos walk by twice !--><br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*When the commandos are at "R&R", they are next to "Xtra cold ones", a variation on a [[Cold One]].<br />
*The Cheat Commando action figure packages are the same design as in the emails [[action figure]] and [[army]].<br />
**Firebert's box looks exactly the same as in the Easter egg in [[army]].<br />
**On Crackotage's package, it says "Museum Quality". The peanut Strong Bad action figure in the email [[action figure]] has the same description.<br />
**The caption "Yellow Dog!!" on Firebert's action figure package is a reference to what Homestar calls [[The Cheat]] in [[army]].<br />
*The helicopter sound in the beginning is just like the The Cheat Skycam Traffic helicopter sounds from the Strong Bad email [[local news]].<br />
*The words "Cool Glasses" on Gunhaver's package is a reference to [[The theme from DANGERESQUE II: This time, it's not Dangeresque I]] on [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]]<br />
*Ripberger is the name of the magistrate in [[Thy Dungeonman II]].<br />
**Ripberger is also the name of the character voiced by Mark Hamill in the Lucas Arts game "Full Throttle" (although his name is spelled "Ripburger").<br />
*This is another appearance of the word "[[Total|total]]".<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*[[Foxface]], the only female commando, is obviously modeled after the [[Wikipedia:G. I. Joe|GI Joe]] character, Scarlett, whose mantra is "I'm not just one of the 'guys'; I'm better", according to the [http://www.hasbro.com/gijoe/experience/pl/page.filecards/team.Joe/joe_id.64/dn/default.cfm GI Joe website]. According to Foxface's packaging, she is "Not One of The Guys!!"<br />
*[[Blue Laser]]'s plan to blow up the ocean might be a reference to an actual GI Joe episode. In "There's No Place Like Springfield," [[Wikipedia:COBRA Organization|Cobra]] had invented a chemical compound which could convert any body of water—even oceans—into a powerful explosive.<br />
* The fact that the base of all Cheat Commandos are the same (in terms of size, appearance, expression, etc), with only costumes setting them apart, alludes to countless toys in the '80s that were extremely similar to facilitate mass-production.<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*In the Strong Bad email [[virus]], the shot of Fightgar firing his machine gun in all directions is replayed in an Easter egg where the machine gun is replaced with Homestar's leg.<br />
<br />

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I wanna do this commentary with you.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, Homestar Runner.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Nice to see you.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm in this type of a&mdash; of a cartoon.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' There you are right there.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, that's my side part.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Your&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' My side part and my knee part.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Your side part and your knee part?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The side part's connected to the knee part?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's exactly how the song goes. I was being Silent Rip. He snuck up&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You know what Silent Rip means?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' What does? I don't know. It means he rips&mdash; he rips through the silence.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' That's right. How does he do that?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I don't know, with his microphone.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, okay. You're&mdash; you're probably right.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Who's that Barbie doll? That's a pretty hot Barbie doll.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Why don't you tell them the story of all the names, Mike?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Well, orginally, they were for the&mdash; uh, when Firebert's first appearance in the army email.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Right, The Cheat.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The Cheat. Yeah, uh, we had just written down a bunch of commando names. Firebert was the one we, uh, decided on, but we had this list of all these other names: Gunhaver, Silent Rip, Crackotage.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ooooooh.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' And then my friend Matt thought that we should, you know, make a line of these toys using all these different names.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's a great idea.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, Matt has a few of 'em. ''{pause until announcer says "on the inside of your TV"}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' On the ''inside'' of your TV, Mike. How do you watch those shows?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Have you ever watched anything on the ''outside'' of your TV?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, every&mdash; uh, I think every show&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, okay.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ends up being on the outside right?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You should try the inside.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You would fit.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Is it moist in there?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' I hope not.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Tender? The cartoons are more tender.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Hey, there's that red ninja that's never been in anything else.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' That's Ripberger.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He's Ripberger, yeah.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' B''u''rger.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' B''u''rger. ''{laughs}'' Ripberger.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Ripb''u''rger. Burger wheat.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The Ripbergers lived behind us in Indiana when we were growing up.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You had some burger wheat for&mdash; for lunch today, didn't you?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I think that was bulger wheat.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Burger&mdash; burger wheat.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' All right, that's enough about that.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I like this "weekdays" guy. He's like a local guy, not from the real toy company. ''{Mike laughs}'' You're fired! ''{Mike laughs again}''<br />

'''Crazy Go Nuts University''' is a [[School|university]] created and run by [[Strong Bad]]. To attend CGNU, applicants must send in the free art test consisting of drawing a [[Painting of a Guy with a Big Knife|guy with a big knife]]. Actual applicants are not accepted, however, and the art test is only so Strong Bad can make fun of the person who took it. According to Strong Bad, "A diploma from Crazy Go Nuts University will be pretty impressive on your wall, and all your friends will be pretty impressed." The only known room in CGNU is the [[CGNU Prinicpal's Office|prinicpal's office]]. They offer an assortment of courses online, which require only four clicks to get a "shady online degree". The CGNU website doesn't actually exist, since .edu addresses are only available to actual educational institutions. However, a fan has created a website at http://www.cgnuonline-eniversity.com/ which looks the same as that shown in [[theme song]].<br />

== Transcript ==<br />
''{The computer room is empty. After a second, Strong Bad walks on-screen}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' And I pretend that it's made of money-<br />
<br />
''{stops singing, notices camera}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{addressing viewer}'' Er... Oh! Um... Look, uh, I'm not doin' one this week. Yeah... not doin' one. So... bye.<br />
<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing again}'' And I pretend that it's made of money...<br />
<br />
''{The Cheat enters and looks at the computer, then looks around. He then grins at the camera...}''<br />
<br />
=== Powered by The Cheat ===<br />
''{A new Flash cartoon begins. The cartoon is Powered By The Cheat, as evidenced by the more primitive graphic quality and the substandard, imitated voices.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{singing}'' Eeeeeeeeeemail. Ooh, ah, email, ooh, ah— <br />
<br />
''{reading}''<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="compy email">Dear Strong Bad,<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Can you run a mile. <br /><br />
<br /><br />
-Seb<br /><br />
The Lodge, MN</blockquote><br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' You'd better believe it, Seb, I can ride I can do cartwheels for a mile. ''{stops typing}'' Ready and one and set and go!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad cartwheels away from his desk. Cut to a shot of him cartwheeling through the TV room from left to right.}''<br />
<br />
'''TV ANNOUNCER:''' TV show featuring The Cheat in a Trans Am.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Here I go.<br />
<br />
''{The scene cuts to a lot with a bunch of buses that say Sk&ouml;l}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Here I go again on my own.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad uses a ramp to jump over the buses. Bubs appears from behind a fence. He appears to have no lower body}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' Hey, Strong Bad, you jumped over some of my buses! <!-- While it may look odd, that is the correct spelling of the plural of "bus". --><br />
<br />
''{"A new record!! 19 buses!!" appears in the air and imitation crowd noises can be heard. Cut to Marzipan standing in the field}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Keep it up, Strong Bad. Keep up the pace!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Thanks for cheering me on.<br />
<br />
''{Scene cuts to a brick wall, standing in the middle of a field}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Halfway to go, I have to break through this brick wall!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad continues forward anyway, the wall not causing him any resistance. The bricks explode upon impact, then fall down and spell "HI". Cut to Homestar in the field holding a sign that says "I ''&#9829;'' cooties"}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Kick it out, b-hand.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad stretches out his leg and trips Homestar. Cut to Strong Bad finishing his mile on an athletic track, with flashbulbs everywhere. It then cuts to Homestar, Marzipan, and Coach Z waiting for Strong Bad at the finish line. Coach Z's usually green suit is instead pink}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Mr. Strong Bad, you won the mile. How did- what's your secret?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat.<br />
<br />
''{The Cheat parachutes in from the top of the frame, wearing a light blue tuxedo and sunglasses and holding a glass of champagne. Money is stuffed into his tuxedo pocket. He lands on the ground and raises up his glass. A thought bubble appears above Marzipan's head that reads "i ''&#9829;'' that cheat."}''<br />
<br />
'''EVERYBODY:''' The Cheat is a millionaire! A parade for The Cheat!<br />
<br />
''{A parade goes by, featuring a The Cheat float that says "Dunkin' the Ch8t", a The Cheat hot air balloon, fireworks, ending with The Poopsmith pushing a broom, then the scene cuts back to Strong Bad's computer room.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD''' ''{typing}'': So yes, Jimmy-Jimmy, there have been parades honoring The Cheat, but don't let that from stopping you from organizing your own. He can be the Grand... Marshall. He's also available for proms and pizza parties. <br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad actually types: So yes, Jimmy-Jimmy, there have been p's h-ing the C. B. d. l. t. f. s. y. f. o. y. o. He can be the Grand Marshall. He's a-so available for proms and pizza parties.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So, okay folks, I gotta go to my next show. See you later nice time!<br />
<br />
''{At the end, a Powered-by-The-Cheat version of [[The Paper]] comes down with a sound effect that just sounds like some guy going "'''K'''errrriorrrr..."}''<br />
<br />
== Easter Eggs ==<br />
[[Image:Knight to remember.PNG|thumb|150px|"A Knight to Remember"]]<br />
*Before The Cheat shows up, the diskette says "[[Floppy Disk Container#One on One|One on One]]". Within The Cheat's cartoon but before Strong Bad starts cartwheeling, click on it to see that it says "[[Floppy Disk Container#out of this world|out of this world]]". After Strong Bad gets back, click on it again to show "[[Floppy Disk Container#NITEMARE 3-D|NITEMARE 3-D]]".<br />
*At the end of the email, click "proms" to see a Polaroid of The Cheat with a silhouette labeled "Your bod here" and a note scrawled at the bottom: "A Knight to Remember, June 3rd 2004." <br />
**It had been rumored that was "scheduled for further release", meaning they might have made a cartoon about it. Unfortunately, the day passed without any update on H*R.com. Nevertheless, two days following, the Strong Bad Email [[cheatday]] was released.<br />
*Also at the end, click "[[pizza]] parties" to see a logo for "Cheatsa Parties", featuring The Cheat taking a bite out of a large pizza.<br />
*Press 'O' at the end to see a silhouette of Strong Bad doing cartwheels over a bunch of hills with music playing in the background, which is actually a takeoff of [[Old Intro 2]].<br />
*If the viewer uses a decompiler or install a [http://www.squarefree.com/2004/07/19/flash-seek-bar-bookmarklet Flash Seek Bookmarklet], some [[:Image:headlessdance.gif|broken animation]] of a headless dancing Homestar at the end after the cartwheeling Easter egg can be accessed. This could possibly be an unfinished Easter Egg.<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*Strong Bad cartwheeling the mile (as opposed to running it like "Seb" had originally asked) was probably done so that The Cheat would not have to animate anything; instead, he could just rotate Strong Bad's standing frame a few dozen times. Nevertheless, in a couple of the frames, Strong Bad's legs are in noticably different positions.<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*When The Cheat shows up after Strong Bad wins the mile, Marzipan has a thought bubble reading "I &#9829; ''that'' Cheat". This is one of the few times that The Cheat is not referred to with a "[[Integral Article|The]]" preceding his name. This instance is particularly interesting because The Cheat himself made this cartoon. <br />
*Strong Bad cartwheels 65 times, 55 without the Easter egg.<br />
*According to the DVD commentary and the [[FAQ]], the email answered here was not received from a fan, but was invented by [[The Brothers Chaps]]. Except for this one, the first 100 emails answered by Strong Bad came from real fans.<br />
*This cartoon can be found either on the [[Strong Bad Email]] menu or the [[Powered by The Cheat]] menu.<br />
*The sound effect played when Strong Bad cartwheels through the tape at the finish line is from The Cheat's cartoon in [[crazy cartoon]], when Strong Bad kicked Homestar in the face nine times.<br />
*A high school band, in addition to performing the [[Crazy Go Nuts University|CGNU]] Fight Song as a [[Quote of the Week#QW-2006-02-09|Quote of the Week]] on February 9, 2006, reference this email in the opening ("''Ready and one and set and go!''") and closing ("''Well, there you have it Jimmy Jimmy''") remarks.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*In the PBTC version:<br />
**When Coach Z says "what's your secret?" his head pops off a little bit.<br />
**When you click on the [[Floppy Disk Container|floppy]] when Strong Bad is finishing the cartwheel, it says "Nitemare 3-D" and it's ''behind'' Strong Bad and the computer.<br />
**Before Strong Bad starts to do cartwheels for a mile, the text typed in his computer stays in position for a couple of frames or so.<br />
**There is no patch on the couch.<br />
**When Strong Bad leaves his desk and starts cartwheeling, his head passes behind the floppy disk on the desk, even though the object is in the background.<br />
**Strong Bad's computer says 'Compa' as opposed to '[[Compy 386]]'.<br />
**Strong Bad's computer doesn't have a keyboard.<br />
**When bubs is talking, he has no noticable legs.<br />
*The way "cheat" is spelled on the "Dunkin' the Ch8t" float is an example of [[Internet Slang|Leetspeak]] and would actually be pronounced 'chate'.<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*"Seb" may be a reference to the British athlete [[Wikipedia:Sebastian Coe|Sebastian "Seb" Coe]], a mid-distance runner who once held the world record in the mile.<br />
*The parade followed by The Poopsmith sweeping up after it is a reference to a segment of ''[[Wikipedia:The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show|The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show]]'' called ''Peabody's Improbable History'', where there were parades honoring [[Wikipedia:Mr. Peabody|Peabody]] with only one janitor cleaning up after it.<br />
*Strong Bad says "Here I go again on my own" before going on the ramp over Bubs's 19 buses. This is the first line of the chorus of "Here I Go Again", an '80s standard by [[Wikipedia:Whitesnake|Whitesnake]].<br />
*The rhythmic part of the "song" being played during the parade is from ''[[Wikipedia:Super Mario Bros. 3|Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' for the [[Nintendo|NES]], played during the airship, tank, and watership levels. The fireworks at the end of the parade are very similar in sound to the cannons and exploding [[Wikipedia:Bob-omb|Bob-ombs]] that densely populate these levels.<br />
*The line "TV show featuring The Cheat in a [[Wikipedia:Pontiac Trans Am|Trans Am]]" almost certainly refers to the TV series ''[[Wikipedia:Knight Rider|Knight Rider]]''.<br />
*When The Cheat parachutes in after Strong Bad has won the mile, he is wearing a [[Wikipedia:Gucci|Gucci]] parachute.<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*Bubs's line, "Some of my buses", is used again on [[Main Page 22]].<br />
<br />
== DVD Version ==<br />
*For whatever reason, there is no option to use the angle button, and therefore the Floppy Disk Easter eggs have been disabled. This is one of the only emails on the set that does not have the angle option available.<br />
*The hills Easter egg is now accessible like a normal Easter egg.<br />
The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br />
===Commentary Transcript===<br />
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I like that song, I'd like to hear that whole song.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I wonder what he's pretending is made of money.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I know, maybe that's just the chorus, and goes through a bunch of different things.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, like, uh&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{singing}'' can of beans. Pretend that it's made of money! Unh! A guitar! Unh! Unh! And I pretend that it's made of money!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' That's...a good song.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's clearly not how he's singing it, but maybe...<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, One-On-One. The original One-on-One was, of course, uh, Dr. J and Larry Bird. Good game!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Great game! So here's The Cheat, his big de-butt. Well, I guess in [[crazy cartoon]], he does it.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, or something. The Compa!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' This is one of the only made-up Strong Bad emails, right?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, we made that up. The only one. <br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We figured that The Cheat's doing it, so he's not gonna care about that sort of stuff.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
''{pause}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The vocal work on this, uh, particular episode is fantastic.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh, really, Mike?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You did a great job on this one, Matt!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh. I didn't do this one&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, wait, ''I'' did the voices. Okay, listen to my Bubs impression, which is pretty much my Fat Albert impression. ''{Imitating Powered by The Cheat Bubs}'' Hey, Hey, Rudy!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's a good one. That Marzipan is... horrifying. I like her teeth. ''{Mike Laughs}'' I remember... um...<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' What's that, Matt?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Dan from Carmel, Indiana really loved that one, I remember. I remember in band, we talked to him a lot.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, B-Hand was a guy that ran with our older brother, Donnie, at track. I remember my Mom always yelling, "Kick it out, B-Hand!"<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I like the, uh, the Gucci parachute.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, it's amazing. And he's just got some loose cash.<br />
<br />
''{Mike and Matt laugh}''<br />
<br />

==Transcript==<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{rapping}'' I was born to check emails and eat lots of cake!<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="lappy email"><br />
<div>subject: dream book</div><br />
Dear Strong Bad,<br/><br />
I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad<br/><br />
pop-up book. It was the book of my dreams.<br/><br />
Kat<br/><br />
Spokane, Wash.<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
''{After reading the main part of the email once, Strong Bad repeats it twice as a rap. He says "Wash." as the word "wash".}'' <!-- However, he pronounces "Spokane" correctly. It is NOT pronounced Spo-kain. --><br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises from offscreen}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to show The Cheat next to his keyboard}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, all right. One more time.<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{approving The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad jumps on his stool and dances as The Cheat plays on his keyboard and dances.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{rapping}'' I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad pop-up book! It was the book of my dreeeams! ''{on "dreams", he jumps up, almost hits the ceiling, and lands on his stool}'' There you go, little one. Now get back in there and win me a car!<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{affirmative The Cheat noises; he salutes and rushes off.}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the Lappy}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You know, I feel like that sentence could really apply to anything. ''{moves the cursor up to "pop-up book" and replaces it with "salad".}'' Like, uh, "I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad salad. ''{scrolls over toward the other "book" and replaces it with "salad" as well.}'' It was the salad of my dreams." Or maybe like, ''{adds "taco" before each "salad"}'' "I had a dream that my friend had a Strong Bad taco salad. It was the taco salad of my dreams." ''{moves the cursor below the email, types}'' Anyways, a Strong Bad pop-up book. This sounds like a job for: makin' stuff up.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to an image of a pop-up book. The inside cover reads "From the libarry <!--sic--> of D. Squirrel" with a dead squirrel drawn in. The first page reads "STRONG BAD'S POP-UP BOOK of your dreams by Strong Bad, for Strong Bad".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' The Strong Bad pop-up book would obviously feature...<br />
<br />
''{The page turns to show Strong Bad near two cherubs. The text reads "This is a good kid." A tab is seen under Strong Bad's head.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...me hangin' out with some of those wing-a-ling babies! ''{The cherubs bob up and down}'' And I'd have a little tab on my flesh-tangle so you could make me talk! ''{As the pop-up Strong Bad, who waves his arms}'' You little almost-naked babies are so cute, I could just dip you in beer batter and fry you right up! ''{As the cherubs, who bob up and down}'' Okay, Mr. Strong Bad! ''{as himself}'' Oh! And don't forget the ab-tab! <br />
<br />
''{The tab moves over and Strong Bad's chest obtains Sharpie abs. The page turns to reveal an image of a computer resembling the Tandy 400. On its screen is the message "HOW TYPE BOX GLOVES?" Two tabs are visible, one to the right of the screen and one on the keyboard. A speaker can also be seen on the keyboard.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey look! It's my crappy old computer! Asking the same crappy old questions!<br />
<br />
''{The tab on the screen moves and the screen changes to "DELETED!!"}''<br />
<br />
'''SPEAKER:''' ''{very indistinctly}'' Deleted!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The lake head? What does that mean?<br />
<br />
''{The tab goes back, taking the screen with it, and changes to "DELETED!!" again.}''<br />
<br />
'''SPEAKER:''' Deleted!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Police quest?! This thing is obviously broken.<br />
<br />
''{The other tab is pulled, and smoke appears above the computer.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' No wonder I got rid of that old buncha beige.<br />
<br />
''{The page turns. Strong Sad is seen covered in cement. A backhoe, cement mixer, and Strong Bad in a construction helmet are seen in the background. The text reads "Strong Sad is covered in Gray cement" with "Gray cement" in a box. A turning wheel is seen on the right, and another tab is seen at the bottom.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, look! Strong Sad has wandered onto my construction site. What sweet fate did I bestow on him from the cement mixer? ''{The wheel turns, the liquid on Strong Sad turns red, and the box reads "Ram's blood".}'' Ram's blood? ''{The wheel turns, the color becomes light yellow, and the box reads "Boston Cream".}'' Boston cream? ''{Again, to a transitional color and "Magic Eye".}'' Magic Eye? Don't forget the flab-tab! ''{The tab is pulled out, and Strong Sad's upper body flips down to make him look flabbier.}''<br />
<br />
''{The page turns to a "NegativeZero" fridge. It has a sticky note on it that reads "2 more eggs!"}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The next page is snack time! What am I gonna have to eat today?<br />
<br />
''{The door opens to reveal a single burger patty with two pickle slices on it. A carton of "mmmilk", two eggs, a small paper box, a bottle of "pop!", and a jar of mayo are drawn onto the back.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! A real-live burger! Do I get one of these every time I turn the page?!<br />
<br />
''{The page turns back to Strong Sad, then to the fridge again. When the door opens this time, there are two burgers inside.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa! ''Two'' burgers! ''{Gavin appears from under a flap and crawls around a little}'' Clearly, this pop-up book ''{The fridge door closes, and Gavin crawls out from under it a moment later}'' is a source of unspeakable power. <br />
<br />
''{Spooky jungle music plays. The page then turns to Homestar Runner's image, which has a black eye and two saws stuck through him.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Why look. It's the Homestar Runner! ''{pauses for a moment}'' Bye, the Homestar Runner!<br />
<br />
''{The page turns to a [[lackey#Easter Eggs|StrongBad Libs]] version of Strong Bad and The Cheat in front of a cave. The sun can be seen overhead, and there's a tree in front of the cave. There's a tab above the cave and one at the bottom of the page.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{rapidly decreasing volume}'' SeeyalaterStrongBaaa...<br />
<br />
''{A wheel under the cutouts of the sun rays starts moving back and forth.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh-oh! It looks like The Cheato Bandito has stolen all of Senor Muybueno's gold!<br />
<br />
''{The tree flips down, revealing a pile of gold underneath.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Let's help him get some Cheat-tribution.<br />
<br />
''{The lower tab is pulled and pushed back several times, and as it does, "Senor Muybueno"'s foot rises and "The Cheato Bandito" moves upward. "Senor Muybueno"'s head also looks up in the process.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Boot 'em up, boot 'em up, boot 'em up, y'all. This is like kicking The Cheat light! All of the flavor, with only half the chance of rabies!<br />
<br />
''{The upper tab is pulled, and a bear pokes down in the cave. The tree goes back to normal, and the page turns. Strong Bad's head, with flashing lights for eyes, is in the center. Two towers with ropes between them, and The Tire hanging from them, are in the upper-left, with a sliding tab below it. A "Cold One" is seen to the right of that, with a turn wheel above it. Near it is the BMW Lighter, with a pull tab to its right. A box is in the lower right. A cherub over a "FAT FRYER" is in the lower left, with a tab to its left. In the background, it reads "Slide! Spin! Grasp! Pull! His Head! Tap the flabs! Pull!!!" near each object.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' And the last page would be a veritable cornucop-pourri of pop-up mastery!<br />
<br />
''{The various objects all move. The Tire simply falls off its wires. The Cold One has its label replaced over and over. The BMW opens up with a flame, and closes. The box flips over, revealing the same box tipped the other way. The cherub moves into and out of the fryer.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' There'd be tabs and flaps, flabs and taps, the string thing that doesn't work, and some more sound chips and dips.<br />
<br />
'''SPEAKER:''' Holy crap!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Sounds like they improved on the technology since page 2! Aaaaaand, don't forget the crap-flap!<br />
<br />
''{A flap turns down with a pile of whatsit underneath. Cut back to the Lappy.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' So now the pop-up book is primed and ready for the four year-old<!--sic-->, or The Cheat, in your life to use as a tissue! That thing'll provide seconds of non-ripped apart fun! Speaking of seconds, I'm gonna go eat my burgers.<br />
<br />
''{He leaves. [[The Paper]] comes down.}''<br />
<br />
==Easter Eggs==<br />
<br />
*Click ''Kat Spokane, Wash.'' after Strong Bad raps for The Cheat to reveal a [[Leomard Sportsinterviews#Beverly Sportsinterviews|Beverly Sportsinterviews]] book titled ''[[Books_by_Sportsinterviewses#"Cat," spoke Anne, "Wash!"|"Cat," spoke Anne, "Wash!"]]''.<br />
*Click on the pop-up Tandy 400 after Strong Bad says "The Lake Head" to see a comparison between Strong Sad's head and [[Wikipedia:Manicouagan Reservoir|Manicouagan Reservoir]] in Quebec, a circular lake formed by a meteor impact in the late Triassic.<br />
*At the end, click ''The Cheat'' to see a clip of The Cheat, Strong Sad, and Bubs playing dominoes. Bubs is [[smoking]] a cigar.<br />
:'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, The Cheat wins again. Pay up.<br />
:'''BUBS:''' Well, she's all yours! ''{He hands The Cheat a car key. The Cheat squeals in happiness and does a dance.}''<br />
<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
<br />
===Explanations===<br />
<br />
*While the name "Senor Muybueno" has no inherent meaning by itself, the corrected Spanish name "Se&ntilde;or Muy Bueno" would be equivalent to "Mister Very Good" in English.<br />
<br />
[[Image:magiceye.jpg|thumb|right|Magic Eye]]<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
<br />
*This is the first time we see the ceiling of the computer room, or any other room on the same level of the [[House of the Brothers Strong|house]]. <!-- Email couch patch only showed the basement's ceiling. Strong Mad's Character Video also showed the basement's ceiling. --><br />
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#codename iceman|codename: iceman]]".<br />
*Decompiling the Flash file reveals that the Magic Eye image is a working stereogram of Saturn<!-- no, it's not a particularly good picture of Saturn, but that's what it is in the book -->, from [http://www.vision3d.com/book.html ''Magic Eye: How to See 3-D''].<br />
*This is the second time we have seen Strong Bad's tremendous jumping abilities, the first time being in [[unused emails]].<br />
*The pop-up book is owned by D. squirrel.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
<br />
*Although smoke is shown coming out of the computer in the pop-up book, the [[Tandy 400]] actually met its demise due to an explosion and then being thrown out, not overheating.<br />
*When Strong Bad mentions the sound quality has improved since page 2, he is referring to the second pop-up spread. With a traditional page-counting method, this would be pages 4 and 5.<br />
*One of the quickest ways to destroy a pop-up book is to turn the pages without resetting the tabs to their original positions, as Strong Bad does throughout.<br />
*In the Easter egg, it is implied that Bubs is handing over the key to a car. However, the key more strongly resembles a house key, notably in the shape of the head and the fact that it is cut on only one side, a rarity in car keys.<br />
**Older model GM and AMC cars, such as the AMC [[Gremlin]] that Bubs owns, would have this style of single-cut key. However, those keys are distinctly different in appearance from the key that Bubs had.<br />
*The "Gold Circle" award in the "Cat, spoke Anne" Easter egg is, in fact, green.<br />
*When he is visible and the page is turning, Homestar has a visible tongue.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*The Cheat's keyboard stays in place in the bottom corner of the screen for the first frame of Strong Bad's jump, instead of staying down on the floor.<br />
*When Strong Bad turns back to the Strong Sad page to create another burger, the flab tab has been reset.<br />
*While Strong Sad's flab tab drops it's the shape of Strong Sad's head with holes in it, not the shape of the flab.<br />
*In the Easter egg, when Bubs moves, so does the column of smoke from his cigar.<br />
<!-- Please don't add any goofs about any of the pop-up book's features being impossible to make in a real pop-up book. There are a lot of them, that's part of the joke. --><br />
*On the page when The Cheato Bandito gets booted up, the line on the other side of the tab when he is near the top of the page isn't lined up with the ground.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
<br />
*Strong Bad calling the cherubs "wing-a-ling babies" is a reference to [[dragon]], where Strong Bad calls [[Trogdor]] a "wing-a-ling dragon".<br />
*The "ab tab" shows Strong Bad after using the [[Ab-Abber 2000]].<br />
*The following [[Running Gags]] make appearances in this email:<br />
**[[How Do You Type With Boxing Gloves On?]] (on the Tandy page)<br />
**[[DELETED]] (on the Tandy page)<br />
**[[Kicking The Cheat]] (on Senor Muybueno's page)<br />
**[[Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship#Strong Bad Hurting Strong Sad|Strong Bad Hurting Strong Sad]] (on Strong Sad's page)<br />
**[[BMW Lighter]] (on the last page)<br />
**[[Sticky Notes]] (on the refrigerator door)<br />
**[[Smoking]] (Bubs's cigar in the Easter egg)<br />
**[[Senor]] (Strong Bad refers to himself as "Senor Muybueno")<br />
**[[Cold Ones]] (on the last page)<br />
*The odd-looking Strong Bad in the second-to-last section of the book comes from the Strong Bad Libs Easter egg in [[lackey]].<br />
*"2 more [[eggs]]" was an ingredient in [[Strong Bad's EGGS]] in [[morning routine]].<br />
*The label "Negative Zero" on the fridge is a reference to [[Stinkoman 20X6 Walkthrough Level -0|Level -0]] in [[Stinkoman 20X6]], and its location on the fridge may be a reference to the weak point of the level's boss, Ekersby.<br />
**"Negative Zero" is also a pun on the high-end refrigerator brand [http://www.subzero.com Sub-Zero].<br />
[[Image:Recessed lighting.PNG|thumb|right|Recessed lighting]]<br />
*The [[Cold Ones]] on the last page of the book are from [[property of ones]], excluding the original Cold One, which was briefly seen in the [[Theme Song Video]].<br />
*Strong Bad was also drawn as a construction worker in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 10]].<br />
*This email confirms Strong Bad's statement in [[different town]] that his house has recessed lighting.<br />
*The arm movements of The Cheat's dance are similar to those of his hip hop dance in [[New Boots]].<br />
<!-- Please don't add the "spooky sound" as an Inside Ref to "[[Myths & Legends]]" or "[[Bottom 10]]". This goes on the "[[Sound Effects]]" page. --><br />

*The "Gold Circle" award (found on the book ''"Cat," spoke Anne, "Wash!"'') plays off of the fact that the two best-known awards for children's books in the U.S.&mdash;the [http://www.ala.org/ala/alsc/awardsscholarships/literaryawds/newberymedal/aboutnewbery/aboutnewbery.htm Newbery Medal] and the [http://www.ala.org/ala/alsc/awardsscholarships/literaryawds/caldecottmedal/aboutcaldecott/aboutcaldecott.htm Caldecott Medal]&mdash;are circular and golden.<br />

*This main page is page 11 - and the title states "More news at 11!".<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*The [[font]] for the Chyron-style text and the over-the-shoulder headlines used to be [[Wikipedia:Gill Sans|Gill Sans]] (as seen in [http://www.hrwiki.org/images/archive/d/d4/20060819031517%21main11.png this screenshot]), but the current version of Main Page 11 uses the [[Wikipedia:Arial|Arial]] font instead.<br />

== Transcript ==<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh! Check it out! Another one of those...sbemails!<br />
<br />
''{reading}''<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="compy email">Hey Strong Bad,<br /><br />
I was wondering what you do with the<br /><br />
emails that don't get showed on the<br /><br />
weekly email.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Dan Chase,<br /><br />
Aurora, Illinois</blockquote><br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad stops and says "Hey!" after reading "Hey Strong Bad," and pronounces Illinois as "Illi-nwah" (in other words, with a French accent)}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ahh... ''{typing}'' Wha-hoah, Dan. You mean what do I do with the thousands and ''thousands'' of near unreadable emails I get every day? I like to mix it up!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to The Cheat carrying some papers, organizing them into huge stacks}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Sometimes I give them to The Cheat for filing. And archiving.<br />
<br />
''{The Cheat sticks an email in the Medium category. Strong Bad sticks his head in the screen.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' No man, that's a short.<br />
<br />
''{The Cheat shrugs, and attempts to retrieve the email, but is too short to reach the top of the pile. Cut to Strong Bad and Bubs standing at the stick, facing away from each other. Strong Bad has a CD labeled "The Goods", Bubs has a bag of cash labeled "The Payoff".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' Or if I'm strapped for cash, I'll sell the email addresses to Bubs for use in his free weekly spamvertisements.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad drops the CD}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oops! Lookit that! I dropped a CD of five-thousand email addresses!<br />
<br />
''{Bubs throws the bag of money on the ground}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' Whoops! I dropped a quarter for each one!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Strong Mad crumpling up papers}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{voiceover}'' And sometimes I give them to my big brother Strong Mad, for the Japanese art of paper-folding.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad walks on screen}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' So, how are your origamis? Is that one the crane?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' ''{holds up one crumpled ball of paper}'' THIS IS A LOTUS FLOWER! ''{holds up another}'' THIS IS A PRAYING MANTIS!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh yeah, that's great, man. ''{sniffs}'' Incredible likeness.<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to Strong Bad in front of the computer}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' But mostly the emails I don't use just get... ''{stops typing and stands up, backing up slowly}'' A-digga...a-digga...a-digga-digga...a-digga...a-diggity... ''{starts running back toward the desk}'' DIGGITY DIGGITY DIGGITY DIGGITY A-DELETEEEEEED!!!!!! ''{jumps and does an elbow drop on the keyboard, breaking the desk in half.}''<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="compy email" style="background:#003893; text-align:center">DELETED!!</blockquote><br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ohhhhh...I think I broke my clavicus...majorus.<br />

<br />
*Here are the unused emails which appear in this toon:<br />
**Medium stack:<br />
<blockquote>Dear Strong Bad,<br><br />

:*Strong Mad's stack:<br />
<blockquote>Dear, Strong Bad<br><br />
Do you enloy reasing?</blockquote><br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*"It happened to my roommate" in the spam Easter egg probably refers to [[Wikipedia:Chain letter|chain letters]], and the fact that most chain letters involve some type of miracle happening, as well as saying "It happened to ''this person''," as well as the fact of forwarding it to 50 people in order for it "to happen to you."<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#friendly ware|friendly ware]]".<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*Since Strong Bad clearly reads his emails on-screen using "strongbad_email.exe," it's curious as to why he would print out the bad ones before giving the pages to Strong Mad for his origami.<br />
*When The Cheat is filing the emails into short, medium, and tall stacks, the paper is regular copy paper. Apparently, these emails were not printed using Strong Bad's dot matrix printer of [[The Paper]] fame.<br />
*This is the first time we see Strong Bad with CDs. His computer, however, probably doesn't have a drive capable of burning CDs. However, [[Tangerine Dreams|The Cheat's computer]] probably can.<br />
*There is a gap/small skip between "give them to my" and "big brother Strong Mad", hinting that [[The Brothers Chaps]] used two takes, and spliced them together.<br />
*Although Strong Bad deletes the email, it can still be seen on the screen afterwards.<br />
*The e-mail address bubs@homestarrunner.com does not exist.<br />
*Illinois was originally founded by the French, so the pronunciation is legitimate.<br />
*The a> prompt is missing from the back button.<br />
*Bubs is unusually short in this email. He's about Strong Bad's size.<br />
*The quarters that Bubs gives Strong Bad in exchange for the email addresses total $1,250 ($0.25 × 5,000), and would weigh 62.5 lbs.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*When Strong Bad breaks the table in half, the legs don't move. Unless the wooden legs have unusually flexible joints, the legs should have slanted at the same angle as the broken halves.<br />
*On the Spamvertisement Easter Egg, you can still click on the paper or the text on the Compy's screen through the email window.<br />
*When strong bad is running toward the compy, the shape of his head changes, along with his head shrinking.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
[[Image:Clavicus.png|thumb|"I think I broke my clavicus... majorus."]]<br />
*According to commentary on the [[strongbad_email.exe|DVD]], the "clavicus... majorus" line was originally to be used in the unfinished toon [[Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True]].<br />
*When Strong Bad runs toward the computer he passes the same door and window about four times, as in [[gimmicks]], when the [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] explodes.<br />
*This marks the second time in which Strong Bad pronounces a word with a heavy French accent ("Illinois" = "Illi-nwah"). The first time was in [[3 Wishes]] when he pronounces "croissants" in the same way (this is also later revisited in [[action figure]], when Strong Bad describes the Chinese Throwing Croissants).<br />
*One of the unused emails in the Short Stack (Easter Egg) reads, in part: "you are stupid and have an ugly butt". This is based on a song in [[Strong Bad Sings]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*The email address the Weekly Spamvertisement is directed to (squealydee678@kindergartencop.edu), a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Arnold Schwarzenegger|Arnold Schwarzenegger]] film [[Wikipedia:Kindergarten Cop|Kindergarten Cop]].<br />
*"Clavicus" is a play on the [[Wikipedia:clavicle|clavicle]] (also known as the collar bone).<br />
**The word ''majorus'' doesn't actually exist in [[Wikipedia:Latin|Latin]]: the form of the adjective ''major'' that agrees with an ''-us'' ending such as ''clavicus'' is simply ''major''. The similar sounding ''majoris'' does exist, though, but only when used as a possessive.<br />
*The background when Strong Bad is running to his computer is used in most cartoon shows during a chasing scene (eg. The Flintstones), where the hallway is very long and has repeating animation, such as a door or a window.<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*The "Digga-Digga-Digga... [[DELETED]]!" line is (almost) used again in [[car]].<br />
*An email address ending in "kindergartencop.edu" also shows up in [[technology]].<br />
*The line, "Slink on over to Bubs' Concession Stand" in the Easter egg is similar to a line used in [[retirement]].<br />

''{Cut to The King of Town, Coach Z and Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Oh jeez, I don't know, I think I prefer his work with the Furious 5 much more. Uh, he had more street cred back then...<br />
<br />
''{Homestar walks by, and continues to do so throughout the scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, thanks for coming to my party guys. Ahh, Coach Z is down with the PE! ''{Coach Z dances to Homestar's second remark.}''<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...ya know, I think it turned out pretty good. I mean Mom helped me do the fruit ''{gestures to hat}'', and I did the sewing—<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, lookin' good, Strong Bad. The Chiquita Banana lady, that's great!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, Chiquita Ba—?! ''{shouting}'' For the last time, I'm Carmen freakin' Miranda!<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Marzipan, Strong Sad, Pom Pom and The Poopsmith, who is bobbing for pumpkins. He picks up a pumpkin and spits it into the bucket twice.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yesterday, I was out in the garden, and I was weeding, and there was this little worm...<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aww, everybody looks so great! ''{stops walking}'' You know, there's more punch over there, if anybody... wants any. All riiiiiight, everybody! Line up! ''{holds up flashlight}'' We're gonna play ''{clicks flashlight on and off}'' Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashliiight! ''{thunder booms}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' We should stand boy-girl-boy-girl. ''{thunder booms, organ sting}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good one, Marzipan! That way we know it's fair!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' I get to stand next to you, Homestar.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nope. I'm standin' next to Bubs. You get to stand next to Strong Baaad. ''{walks away}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{gasps}'' Uh! <br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Psst! ''{whispering}'' Hey, Marzipan... is my slip showing?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, okay, okay! I'll go first.<br />
<br />
''{A circle forms around him so his picture is now an inset of a new scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... okay! Once, there was this green gobliiiin... ''{a goblin appears}'' and um, he used to... look aroooound... ''{the goblin looks around}'' And um, I guess he did a daaance. ''{the goblin dances}'' Oh man, that was terrible.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar passes the flashlight to Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' And, the goblin, he had a Gremlin! And he jacked it up on some fat tires, and uh, and he tuned it up on some 4.11 positrak out back, 750 double pumper, Edelbrock intake, bore over 30, 11-to-1 pop-up pistons turbo jets 390 horsepower! I mean, he had some freakin' muscle!<br />
<br />
''{Bubs passes the flashlight to Pom Pom.}''<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{Pom Pom makes bubbling noises throughout his segment.}''<br />
<br />
''{A giggling blonde girl in a pink bikini with a Pom head appears next to the Gremlin, as well as a redhead with a blue bikini and a brunette in a leopard-pattern bikini, followed by beer and sports paraphernalia. Pom Pom passes the flashlight to Marzipan.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' One of the girls had a cute little kitten named Kitty-kitty.<br />
<br />
''{A cat appears beside the girl on the left.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' The other girl had a cute little puppy named Chris.<br />
<br />
''{A dog appears beside the girl on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' And then the third girl was a Republican.<br />
<br />
''{A Republican Party Elephant sign appears in the hand of the girl on the Gremlin.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, brother! Gimme that! ''{snatches the flashlight from Marzipan}'' So then the robot came&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot appears onscreen, to the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;and he started vaporizing everybody with his vapor-gun! ''{the Visor Robot begins doing just that}'' And he was like "You take this, and you'd better, you, and you take this, everybody's gonna die!" And then he said, "Oh, the Gremlin! I hate the Goblin Gremlin! Bah!"<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot kicks the Gremlin over the trees.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I need to get some more punch.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad passes the flashlight to the King of Town and walks off}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oooh, oooh!<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot and Goblin stand across from each other and all the food appears that the KOT mentions in between them.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' And there was fried fish and heavenly ham and Salisbury sundaes and globs of meringue and strawberry frosted donuts and bowls full of jelly and Klondike pudding and scrumptious fillers... and—DOO! DOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO!<br />
<br />
''{All the food inexplicably disappears. The King passes the flashlight to Strong Sad and hurries off.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And so it turns out the robot had a human brain which was stolen from a kindly old man. And the children of that old man came to the robot looking for their father, and they called out to him.<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubble with an exclamation point in it appears on the girl.}'' <br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And the robot's human brain remembered his children and his stolen life, and he was moved to tears. ''{robot starts to cry.}'' But the tears shorted out his circuits, and fried his brain. ''{Electric bolts appear on the Visor Robot's head}'' And the robot toppled over, and he crushed his children, and the Goblin, too. ''{Visor Robot falls on them and his brain comes out.}'' And none of them lived.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Bubs, Coach Z, and The King of Town crying.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{crying}'' Oh, jeez, what a total downer! ''{they walk away, still crying}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh man, I'm outta here!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{crying}'' That's the saddest story I've ever heard! You can't come to next year's party.<br />
<br />
''{Marzipan walks away crying, while The Poopsmith sighs deeply and also walks away.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sadly}'' Gee... thanks for coming to my party, Strong Sad. ''{sighs, walks away.}''<br />
<br />
''{Everyone except Strong Sad leaves, and crickets start chirping. An owl hoots and a far-off wolf howls. Strong Sad clicks the flashlight on and off a few times, then the screen fades.}''<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*With nine deaths, this cartoon has a higher body count than any other cartoon on the website, including [[Teen Girl Squad]].<br />
*This is the only time we've seen Coach Z with a full complement of fingers.<br />
*Strong Mad, The Cheat, The Poopsmith, and Coach Z never contributed to the ghost story, but the Poopsmith probably doesn't contribute to the story on purpose, courtesy of his vow of silence.<br />
*This toon was "Written, drawn, and directed by Matt, Mike, and Craig". This is most likely [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]], the spooky trees in the background are just next to [[Bubs' Concession Stand]].<br />
*Coach Z's clock reads 3:57.<br />
*This is the first appearance of The Goblin, who has become something of a Halloween toon staple.<br />
*This is also the first appearance of the [[Gremlin]], which later has reappeared in several toons.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*Marzipan suggests they should line up boy-girl-boy-girl. She is the only girl, making this difficult. Strong Bad crossdressing could allow him to be considered a girl, but if so he shouldn't stand next to Marzipan.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*The birthmark on Strong Sad as [[Wikipedia:Mikhail Gorbachev|Gorbachev]] is on the wrong side of his head.<br />
*When Homestar turns the flashlight on and off for Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashlight, his face isn't illuminated any better, so much as the rest of his body is cast into shadow.<br />
*When Strong Sad turns the flash light on & off at the end, his hands do not move.<br />
*If you view the Flash file, when Strong Bad leaves and he is on the other side of the line for the screen, his mouth disappears.<br />
*If you look at marzipans mouth when she leaves, you will notice that her mouth doesnt move, even though she's weeping. This also happens with homestar. When he sighs, his mouth doesnt open.<br />
*The goblins pupils shrink when he turns his head to look at the 2nd girl.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The dog "Chris" looks suspiciously like [[Rejected Characters#Trivia Time|Trivia Time]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*Coach Z's opening line references the [[Wikipedia: Furious Five|Furious Five]], a pioneering rap group in the early 80's. The specific artist Coach Z refers to could either be [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Flash|Grandmaster Flash]], the original leader of the Furious Five, or [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Melle Mel|Grandmaster Melle Mel]], who led the group after Flash's departure. <br />
*Bubs's description of the Gremlin is [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106677/quotes quoted] almost directly from the movie ''[[IMDB:tt0106677|Dazed And Confused]]''. <br />
*The [[Wikipedia:flux capacitor|flux capacitor]] visible on the Gremlin is a reference to the ''[[IMDB:tt0088763|Back to the Future]]'' movies.<br />
*Strong Sad turning the flashlight on and off is possibly an homage to the movie ''[[imdb:tt0111149|Shallow Grave]]'', in which Christopher Eccleston's character turns a flashlight on and off into his face while spiralling into insanity.<br />
*Homestar's shirt says "corporate rock still sucks", which is the motto of [[Wikipedia:SST Records|SST Records]], a favorite record label of Cobain's. Cobain once wore a shirt parodying the slogan on a famous [[Wikipedia:Rolling Stone|Rolling Stone]] [http://i.rollingstone.com/assets/rs/110/76/images/23060_lg.jpg cover] saying "Corporate Magazines still suck". Also, his shoes look a lot like [[Wikipedia:Converse Shoes|Converse]], which the video for [[Wikipedia:Smells Like Teen Spirit|Smells Like Teen Spirit]] helped to repopularize.<br />
**It's also possibly a nod to certain ''[http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/TSHIRTS/NV204.jpg Nirvana shirts]''<br />
*Homestar's line "Coach Z is down with the PE" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Public Enemy|Public Enemy]] song "Burn Hollywood Burn", wherein guest-rapper [[Wikipedia:Ice Cube|Ice Cube]] raps "Ice Cube is down with the PE".<br />
**This could be a play on words; PE could also stand for physical education, as Coach Z is indeed a coach.<br />
*The bear The Cheat has is Pooky, Garfield's teddy bear.<br />
*[[Wikipedia: Edelbrock|Edelbrock]] is a seller of performace parts for [[Wikipedia: automobile|automobiles]].<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*Marzipan's line, "You can't come to next year's party," was revisited in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], when Marzipan said, "I like your costume, Strong Sad, but you weren't invited this year."<br />
*The music that was used for the Flashlight Ghost Storytelling Using a Flashlight was used again in The House That Gave Sucky Treats and the Strong Bad e-mail [[theme park]] during "The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt Spooktacular".<br />
*A slight variation of Homestar's "Corporate Rock Still Sucks" (the motto of SST Records) shirt was worn by Strong Sad in [[geddup noise]], which said "Corporate The Geddup Noise Still Sucks".<br />
*In this cartoon in one scene you see the Poopsmith bobbing for pumpkins and grabbing a pumpkin in his mouth, which was later used as an easter egg in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] by putting a pumpkin in the Poopsmith's mouth to see Homsar.<br />

('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh, Mike, listen to how you can hear your fingers hitting the keys&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Really?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;on the little&mdash; yeah. ''{pause}'' They're kinda little ''puh puh puh'' clicky&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;holding a mic up to the Casio SK-1 keyboard.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Does that not have a line out?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, it didn&mdash; it sounded crappy, I think.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It just had to go from like an 8-inch to an adaptor, et cetera et cetera.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So here's our first Halloween cartoon.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, it was a really nice ''credit'' sequence... ''Mike''.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ...Not sure why Matt is taking this tone with me, everyone!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' "Every single ''{clears his throat conspicuously}'' wanna see me."<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Ohh, interesting.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Uh, The Cheat's costume, while he looks pretty good, wasn't very involved. It's just a pair of glasses... Garfield-looking glasses.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He has a very authentic Pooky, though... ''{Mike chuckles}'' for sure.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I think the Mikhail Gorbachev still may be my favorite costume.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It's a good one.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Although ''his'' glasses don't have any, uh...<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' They're just taped to his face.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' And I think the Marzipan genie costume might be the least thought-out&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We just&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' It was the first one, but, everyone else's costumes are pretty good.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Cap'n Crunch, that's a good... Ooh, Marzipan's old mouth.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{softly}'' Ooh, the&mdash; Oh... I don't think Kurt Cobain had that stringy of&mdash; his hair was that stringy.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't&mdash; Our friend Craig made that hair.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he really? I didn't remember that. I know that Craig made the ladies, the hot ladies that show up in Pom Pom's story later on.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, he made, he made&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he make that headdress on, uh, the fruit basket headdress?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' No... I made that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh. It looks good. Oh yeah, you drew that and scanned it in, didn't you?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I think we still have the drawing of that in the old sketchbook.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So Matt one time when he was... what do you think, you were three maybe?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, nnnnyeah, may&mdash; four.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Four, probably four. It was right when we moved to Atlanta.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' There was his Halloween costume, it was this big inflatable head that you sort of have attached with this headgear of this Martian. Yeah, goblin?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He was a goblin, not a Martian, he was a gween gobolin.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Our dad was interviewing him on Super 8, and said, "What do you dress up?" ''{imitating Matt's young, high-pitched voice}'' "''A gween gobolin!''"<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It was true, man.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, Bubs has no arms, Matt!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He has no arms!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Good job, us!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Who were we fooling?!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No one! ''{pause}'' These ladies are a little risqué for the website, honestly.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Craig made them way too hot.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Especially the way that one's kinda twisting her ankle like that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, she's&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, she's funneling beers too!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' They're party girls. Pom Pom's into the party girls. ''{pause}'' I remember Melissa made all these things up and I was amazed by her improvisational talents.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{chuckles}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I don't think I&mdash; I don't think I still&mdash; I didn't really like Melissa at that time, and I was really impressed. Naw, I was kidding. I liked Melissa plenty. ''{pause}'' He hates the Goblin Gremlin, Mike. ''{pause}'' Heh, the weird King of Town voice.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;found it stride. There was really, what, like four or five different&mdash; oh, okay there was an impressive amount of different drawings, there. In my head that was a way bigger pile&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;than what I remember.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't know why&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' There's a lot of things that were invented from this cartoon: the goblin, the sad kids, that robot&mdash; the Visor Robot appeared.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The Visor Robot.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Why is it called the Visor Robot?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I dunno, I think the wiki&mdash; I didn&mdash; ''We'' didn't name it the Visor Robot, did we?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' But I ''call'' it the Visor Robot, ''{in a funny voice}'' don't I, Matt?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{in a funny voice similar to Coach Z's}'' Yeah, you do; you gotta listen to that wiki, Mike!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I like, watch the brain slide here.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I did this part. ''{pause}'' Those squashed kids look pretty terrible. ''{both laugh}'' Not even sure how that works.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, Bubs has arms again!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Good, see&mdash; he only has pointy fingers.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah, he's got ''fingers''. Yeah, Coach Z&mdash; 'Cause he says, uh, "the Furious 5", right?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I think so. Well, he was just pointing too, when he's rapping, when he says, "Coach Z is down with the PE." But, now he just has mittens. ''{Mike laughs}'' He has never shown his fingers again. Maybe those are&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He's never shown his true fingers before.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Maybe he's just wearing those on top of his mittens as part of his costume. We're really consistent, everybody! We think this stuff through ahead of time; we have a ten-year plan for the website...!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{wolf howls in the cartoon}'' Hey, that's Matt.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's me.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I do an owl, too. On the website, sound effects master, mang! Manganese.<br />

<br />
''{Cut to The King of Town, Coach Z and Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Oh jeez, I don't know, I think I prefer his work with the Furious 5 much more. Uh, he had more street cred back then...<br />
<br />
''{Homestar walks by, and continues to do so throughout the scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, thanks for coming to my party guys. Ahh, Coach Z is down with the PE! ''{Coach Z dances to Homestar's second remark.}''<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...ya know, I think it turned out pretty good. I mean Mom helped me do the fruit ''{gestures to hat}'', and I did the sewing—<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, lookin' good, Strong Bad. The Chiquita Banana lady, that's great!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, Chiquita Ba—?! ''{shouting}'' For the last time, I'm Carmen freakin' Miranda!<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Marzipan, Strong Sad, Pom Pom and The Poopsmith, who is bobbing for pumpkins. He picks up a pumpkin and spits it into the bucket twice.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yesterday, I was out in the garden, and I was weeding, and there was this little worm...<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aww, everybody looks so great! ''{stops walking}'' You know, there's more punch over there, if anybody... wants any. All riiiiiight, everybody! Line up! ''{holds up flashlight}'' We're gonna play ''{clicks flashlight on and off}'' Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashliiight! ''{thunder booms}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' We should stand boy-girl-boy-girl. ''{thunder booms, organ sting}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good one, Marzipan! That way we know it's fair!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' I get to stand next to you, Homestar.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nope. I'm standin' next to Bubs. You get to stand next to Strong Baaad. ''{walks away}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{gasps}'' Uh! <br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Psst! ''{whispering}'' Hey, Marzipan... is my slip showing?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, okay, okay! I'll go first.<br />
<br />
''{A circle forms around him so his picture is now an inset of a new scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... okay! Once, there was this green gobliiiin... ''{a goblin appears}'' and um, he used to... look aroooound... ''{the goblin looks around}'' And um, I guess he did a daaance. ''{the goblin dances}'' Oh man, that was terrible.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar passes the flashlight to Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' And, the goblin, he had a Gremlin! And he jacked it up on some fat tires, and uh, and he tuned it up on some 4.11 positrak out back, 750 double pumper, Edelbrock intake, bore over 30, 11-to-1 pop-up pistons turbo jets 390 horsepower! I mean, he had some freakin' muscle!<br />
<br />
''{Bubs passes the flashlight to Pom Pom.}''<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{Pom Pom makes bubbling noises throughout his segment.}''<br />
<br />
''{A giggling blonde girl in a pink bikini with a Pom head appears next to the Gremlin, as well as a redhead with a blue bikini and a brunette in a leopard-pattern bikini, followed by beer and sports paraphernalia. Pom Pom passes the flashlight to Marzipan.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' One of the girls had a cute little kitten named Kitty-kitty.<br />
<br />
''{A cat appears beside the girl on the left.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' The other girl had a cute little puppy named Chris.<br />
<br />
''{A dog appears beside the girl on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' And then the third girl was a Republican.<br />
<br />
''{A Republican Party Elephant sign appears in the hand of the girl on the Gremlin.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, brother! Gimme that! ''{snatches the flashlight from Marzipan}'' So then the robot came&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot appears onscreen, to the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;and he started vaporizing everybody with his vapor-gun! ''{the Visor Robot begins doing just that}'' And he was like "You take this, and you'd better, you, and you take this, everybody's gonna die!" And then he said, "Oh, the Gremlin! I hate the Goblin Gremlin! Bah!"<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot kicks the Gremlin over the trees.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I need to get some more punch.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad passes the flashlight to the King of Town and walks off}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oooh, oooh!<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot and Goblin stand across from each other and all the food appears that the KOT mentions in between them.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' And there was fried fish and heavenly ham and Salisbury sundaes and globs of meringue and strawberry frosted donuts and bowls full of jelly and Klondike pudding and scrumptious fillers... and—DOO! DOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO!<br />
<br />
''{All the food inexplicably disappears. The King passes the flashlight to Strong Sad and hurries off.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And so it turns out the robot had a human brain which was stolen from a kindly old man. And the children of that old man came to the robot looking for their father, and they called out to him.<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubble with an exclamation point in it appears on the girl.}'' <br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And the robot's human brain remembered his children and his stolen life, and he was moved to tears. ''{robot starts to cry.}'' But the tears shorted out his circuits, and fried his brain. ''{Electric bolts appear on the Visor Robot's head}'' And the robot toppled over, and he crushed his children, and the Goblin, too. ''{Visor Robot falls on them and his brain comes out.}'' And none of them lived.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Bubs, Coach Z, and The King of Town crying.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{crying}'' Oh, jeez, what a total downer! ''{they walk away, still crying}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh man, I'm outta here!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{crying}'' That's the saddest story I've ever heard! You can't come to next year's party.<br />
<br />
''{Marzipan walks away crying, while The Poopsmith sighs deeply and also walks away.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sadly}'' Gee... thanks for coming to my party, Strong Sad. ''{sighs, walks away.}''<br />
<br />
''{Everyone except Strong Sad leaves, and crickets start chirping. An owl hoots and a far-off wolf howls. Strong Sad clicks the flashlight on and off a few times, then the screen fades.}''<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*With nine deaths, this cartoon has a higher body count than any other cartoon on the website, including [[Teen Girl Squad]].<br />
*This is the only time we've seen Coach Z with a full complement of fingers.<br />
*Strong Mad, The Cheat, The Poopsmith, and Coach Z never contributed to the ghost story, but the Poopsmith probably doesn't contribute to the story on purpose, courtesy of his vow of silence.<br />
*This toon was "Written, drawn, and directed by Matt, Mike, and Craig". This is most likely [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]], the spooky trees in the background are just next to [[Bubs' Concession Stand]].<br />
*Coach Z's clock reads 3:57.<br />
*This is the first appearance of The Goblin, who has become something of a Halloween toon staple.<br />
*This is also the first appearance of the [[Gremlin]], which later has reappeared in several toons.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*Marzipan suggests they should line up boy-girl-boy-girl. She is the only girl, making this difficult. Strong Bad crossdressing could allow him to be considered a girl, but if so he shouldn't stand next to Marzipan.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*The birthmark on Strong Sad as [[Wikipedia:Mikhail Gorbachev|Gorbachev]] is on the wrong side of his head.<br />
*When Homestar turns the flashlight on and off for Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashlight, his face isn't illuminated any better, so much as the rest of his body is cast into shadow.<br />
*When Strong Sad turns the flash light on & off at the end, his hands do not move.<br />
*If you view the Flash file, when Strong Bad leaves and he is on the other side of the line for the screen, his mouth disappears.<br />
*If you look at marzipans mouth when she leaves, you will notice that her mouth doesnt move, even though she's weeping. This also happens with homestar. When he sighs, his mouth doesnt open.<br />
*The goblins pupils shrink when he turns his head to look at the seacond girl.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The dog "Chris" looks suspiciously like [[Rejected Characters#Trivia Time|Trivia Time]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*Coach Z's opening line references the [[Wikipedia: Furious Five|Furious Five]], a pioneering rap group in the early 80's. The specific artist Coach Z refers to could either be [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Flash|Grandmaster Flash]], the original leader of the Furious Five, or [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Melle Mel|Grandmaster Melle Mel]], who led the group after Flash's departure. <br />
*Bubs's description of the Gremlin is [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106677/quotes quoted] almost directly from the movie ''[[IMDB:tt0106677|Dazed And Confused]]''. <br />
*The [[Wikipedia:flux capacitor|flux capacitor]] visible on the Gremlin is a reference to the ''[[IMDB:tt0088763|Back to the Future]]'' movies.<br />
*Strong Sad turning the flashlight on and off is possibly an homage to the movie ''[[imdb:tt0111149|Shallow Grave]]'', in which Christopher Eccleston's character turns a flashlight on and off into his face while spiralling into insanity.<br />
*Homestar's shirt says "corporate rock still sucks", which is the motto of [[Wikipedia:SST Records|SST Records]], a favorite record label of Cobain's. Cobain once wore a shirt parodying the slogan on a famous [[Wikipedia:Rolling Stone|Rolling Stone]] [http://i.rollingstone.com/assets/rs/110/76/images/23060_lg.jpg cover] saying "Corporate Magazines still suck". Also, his shoes look a lot like [[Wikipedia:Converse Shoes|Converse]], which the video for [[Wikipedia:Smells Like Teen Spirit|Smells Like Teen Spirit]] helped to repopularize.<br />
**It's also possibly a nod to certain ''[http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/TSHIRTS/NV204.jpg Nirvana shirts]''<br />
*Homestar's line "Coach Z is down with the PE" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Public Enemy|Public Enemy]] song "Burn Hollywood Burn", wherein guest-rapper [[Wikipedia:Ice Cube|Ice Cube]] raps "Ice Cube is down with the PE".<br />
**This could be a play on words; PE could also stand for physical education, as Coach Z is indeed a coach.<br />
*The bear The Cheat has is Pooky, Garfield's teddy bear.<br />
*[[Wikipedia: Edelbrock|Edelbrock]] is a seller of performace parts for [[Wikipedia: automobile|automobiles]].<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*Marzipan's line, "You can't come to next year's party," was revisited in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], when Marzipan said, "I like your costume, Strong Sad, but you weren't invited this year."<br />
*The music that was used for the Flashlight Ghost Storytelling Using a Flashlight was used again in The House That Gave Sucky Treats and the Strong Bad e-mail [[theme park]] during "The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt Spooktacular".<br />
*A slight variation of Homestar's "Corporate Rock Still Sucks" (the motto of SST Records) shirt was worn by Strong Sad in [[geddup noise]], which said "Corporate The Geddup Noise Still Sucks".<br />
*In this cartoon in one scene you see the Poopsmith bobbing for pumpkins and grabbing a pumpkin in his mouth, which was later used as an easter egg in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] by putting a pumpkin in the Poopsmith's mouth to see Homsar.<br />

'''MATT:''' Yeah. We just&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' It was the first one, but, everyone else's costumes are pretty good.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />

'''MATT:''' ''{softly}'' Ooh, the&mdash; Oh... I don't think Kurt Cobain had that stringy of&mdash; his hair was that stringy.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't&mdash; Our friend Craig made that hair.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he really? I didn't remember that. I know that Craig made the ladies, the hot ladies that show up in Pom Pom's story later on.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, he made, he made&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he make that headdress on, uh, the fruit basket headdress?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' No... I made that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh. It looks good. Oh yeah, you drew that and scanned it in, didn't you?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I think we still have the drawing of that in the old sketchbook.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So Matt one time when he was... what do you think, you were three maybe?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, nnnnyeah, may&mdash; four.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Four, probably four. It was right when we moved to Atlanta.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' There was his Halloween costume, it was this big inflatable head that you sort of have attached with this headgear of this Martian. Yeah, goblin?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He was a goblin, not a Martian, he was a gween gobolin.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Our dad was interviewing him on Super 8, and said, "What do you dress up?" ''{imitating Matt's young, high-pitched voice}'' "''A gween gobolin!''"<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It was true, man.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, Bubs has no arms, Matt!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He has no arms!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Good job, us!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Who were we fooling?!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No one! ''{pause}'' These ladies are a little risqué for the website, honestly.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Craig made them way too hot.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Especially the way that one's kinda twisting her ankle like that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, she's&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, she's funneling beers too!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' They're party girls. Pom Pom's into the party girls. ''{pause}'' I remember Melissa made all these things up and I was amazed by her improvisational talents.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{chuckles}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I don't think I&mdash; I don't think I still&mdash; I didn't really like Melissa at that time, and I was really impressed. Naw, I was kidding. I liked Melissa plenty. ''{pause}'' He hates the Goblin Gremlin, Mike. ''{pause}'' Heh, the weird King of Town voice.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;found it stride. There was really, what, like four or five different&mdash; oh, okay there was an impressive amount of different drawings, there. In my head that was a way bigger pile&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;than what I remember.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't know why&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' There's a lot of things that were invented from this cartoon: the goblin, the sad kids, that robot&mdash; the Visor Robot appeared.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The Visor Robot.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Why is it called the Visor Robot?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I dunno, I think the wiki&mdash; I didn&mdash; ''We'' didn't name it the Visor Robot, did we?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' But I ''call'' it the Visor Robot, ''{in a funny voice}'' don't I, Matt?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{in a funny voice similar to Coach Z's}'' Yeah, you do; you gotta listen to that wiki, Mike!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I like, watch the brain slide here.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I did this part. ''{pause}'' Those squashed kids look pretty terrible. ''{both laugh}'' Not even sure how that works.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, Bubs has arms again!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Good, see&mdash; he only has pointy fingers.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah, he's got ''fingers''. Yeah, Coach Z&mdash; 'Cause he says, uh, "the Furious 5", right?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I think so. Well, he was just pointing too, when he's rapping, when he says, "Coach Z is down with the PE." But, now he just has mittens. ''{Mike laughs}'' He has never shown his fingers again. Maybe those are&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He's never shown his true fingers before.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Maybe he's just wearing those on top of his mittens as part of his costume. We're really consistent, everybody! We think this stuff through ahead of time; we have a ten-year plan for the website...!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{wolf howls in the cartoon}'' Hey, that's Matt.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's me.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I do an owl, too. On the website, sound effects master, mang! Manganese.<br />

<br />
''{Cut to The King of Town, Coach Z and Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Oh jeez, I don't know, I think I prefer his work with the Furious 5 much more. Uh, he had more street cred back then...<br />
<br />
''{Homestar walks by, and continues to do so throughout the scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, thanks for coming to my party guys. Ahh, Coach Z is down with the PE! ''{Coach Z dances to Homestar's second remark.}''<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...ya know, I think it turned out pretty good. I mean Mom helped me do the fruit ''{gestures to hat}'', and I did the sewing—<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, lookin' good, Strong Bad. The Chiquita Banana lady, that's great!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, Chiquita Ba—?! ''{shouting}'' For the last time, I'm Carmen freakin' Miranda!<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Marzipan, Strong Sad, Pom Pom and The Poopsmith, who is bobbing for pumpkins. He picks up a pumpkin and spits it into the bucket twice.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yesterday, I was out in the garden, and I was weeding, and there was this little worm...<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aww, everybody looks so great! ''{stops walking}'' You know, there's more punch over there, if anybody... wants any. All riiiiiight, everybody! Line up! ''{holds up flashlight}'' We're gonna play ''{clicks flashlight on and off}'' Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashliiight! ''{thunder booms}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' We should stand boy-girl-boy-girl. ''{thunder booms, organ sting}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good one, Marzipan! That way we know it's fair!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' I get to stand next to you, Homestar.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nope. I'm standin' next to Bubs. You get to stand next to Strong Baaad. ''{walks away}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{gasps}'' Uh! <br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Psst! ''{whispering}'' Hey, Marzipan... is my slip showing?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, okay, okay! I'll go first.<br />
<br />
''{A circle forms around him so his picture is now an inset of a new scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... okay! Once, there was this green gobliiiin... ''{a goblin appears}'' and um, he used to... look aroooound... ''{the goblin looks around}'' And um, I guess he did a daaance. ''{the goblin dances}'' Oh man, that was terrible.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar passes the flashlight to Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' And, the goblin, he had a Gremlin! And he jacked it up on some fat tires, and uh, and he tuned it up on some 4.11 positrak out back, 750 double pumper, Edelbrock intake, bore over 30, 11-to-1 pop-up pistons turbo jets 390 horsepower! I mean, he had some freakin' muscle!<br />
<br />
''{Bubs passes the flashlight to Pom Pom.}''<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{Pom Pom makes bubbling noises throughout his segment.}''<br />
<br />
''{A giggling blonde girl in a pink bikini with a Pom head appears next to the Gremlin, as well as a redhead with a blue bikini and a brunette in a leopard-pattern bikini, followed by beer and sports paraphernalia. Pom Pom passes the flashlight to Marzipan.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' One of the girls had a cute little kitten named Kitty-kitty.<br />
<br />
''{A cat appears beside the girl on the left.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' The other girl had a cute little puppy named Chris.<br />
<br />
''{A dog appears beside the girl on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' And then the third girl was a Republican.<br />
<br />
''{A Republican Party Elephant sign appears in the hand of the girl on the Gremlin.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, brother! Gimme that! ''{snatches the flashlight from Marzipan}'' So then the robot came&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot appears onscreen, to the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;and he started vaporizing everybody with his vapor-gun! ''{the Visor Robot begins doing just that}'' And he was like "You take this, and you'd better, you, and you take this, everybody's gonna die!" And then he said, "Oh, the Gremlin! I hate the Goblin Gremlin! Bah!"<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot kicks the Gremlin over the trees.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I need to get some more punch.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad passes the flashlight to the King of Town and walks off}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oooh, oooh!<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot and Goblin stand across from each other and all the food appears that the KOT mentions in between them.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' And there was fried fish and heavenly ham and Salisbury sundaes and globs of meringue and strawberry frosted donuts and bowls full of jelly and Klondike pudding and scrumptious fillers... and—DOO! DOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO!<br />
<br />
''{All the food inexplicably disappears. The King passes the flashlight to Strong Sad and hurries off.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And so it turns out the robot had a human brain which was stolen from a kindly old man. And the children of that old man came to the robot looking for their father, and they called out to him.<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubble with an exclamation point in it appears on the girl.}'' <br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And the robot's human brain remembered his children and his stolen life, and he was moved to tears. ''{robot starts to cry.}'' But the tears shorted out his circuits, and fried his brain. ''{Electric bolts appear on the Visor Robot's head}'' And the robot toppled over, and he crushed his children, and the Goblin, too. ''{Visor Robot falls on them and his brain comes out.}'' And none of them lived.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Bubs, Coach Z, and The King of Town crying.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{crying}'' Oh, jeez, what a total downer! ''{they walk away, still crying}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh man, I'm outta here!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{crying}'' That's the saddest story I've ever heard! You can't come to next year's party.<br />
<br />
''{Marzipan walks away crying, while The Poopsmith sighs deeply and also walks away.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sadly}'' Gee... thanks for coming to my party, Strong Sad. ''{sighs, walks away.}''<br />
<br />
''{Everyone except Strong Sad leaves, and crickets start chirping. An owl hoots and a far-off wolf howls. Strong Sad clicks the flashlight on and off a few times, then the screen fades.}''<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*With nine deaths, this cartoon has a higher body count than any other cartoon on the website, including [[Teen Girl Squad]].<br />
*This is the only time we've seen Coach Z with a full complement of fingers.<br />
*Strong Mad, The Cheat, The Poopsmith, and Coach Z never contributed to the ghost story, but the Poopsmith probably doesn't contribute to the story on purpose, courtesy of his vow of silence.<br />
*This toon was "Written, drawn, and directed by Matt, Mike, and Craig". This is most likely [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]], the spooky trees in the background are just next to [[Bubs' Concession Stand]].<br />
*Coach Z's clock reads 3:57.<br />
*This is the first appearance of The Goblin, who has become something of a Halloween toon staple.<br />
*This is also the first appearance of the [[Gremlin]], which later has reappeared in several toons.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*Marzipan suggests they should line up boy-girl-boy-girl. She is the only girl, making this difficult. Strong Bad crossdressing could allow him to be considered a girl, but if so he shouldn't stand next to Marzipan.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*The birthmark on Strong Sad as [[Wikipedia:Mikhail Gorbachev|Gorbachev]] is on the wrong side of his head.<br />
*When Homestar turns the flashlight on and off for Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashlight, his face isn't illuminated any better, so much as the rest of his body is cast into shadow.<br />
*When Strong Sad turns the flash light on & off at the end, his hands do not move.<br />
*If you view the Flash file, when Strong Bad leaves and he is on the other side of the line for the screen, his mouth disappears.<br />
*If you look at marzipans mouth when she leaves, you will notice that her mouth doesnt move, even though she's weeping. This also happens with homestar. When he sighs, his mouth doesnt open.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The dog "Chris" looks suspiciously like [[Rejected Characters#Trivia Time|Trivia Time]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*Coach Z's opening line references the [[Wikipedia: Furious Five|Furious Five]], a pioneering rap group in the early 80's. The specific artist Coach Z refers to could either be [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Flash|Grandmaster Flash]], the original leader of the Furious Five, or [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Melle Mel|Grandmaster Melle Mel]], who led the group after Flash's departure. <br />
*Bubs's description of the Gremlin is [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106677/quotes quoted] almost directly from the movie ''[[IMDB:tt0106677|Dazed And Confused]]''. <br />
*The [[Wikipedia:flux capacitor|flux capacitor]] visible on the Gremlin is a reference to the ''[[IMDB:tt0088763|Back to the Future]]'' movies.<br />
*Strong Sad turning the flashlight on and off is possibly an homage to the movie ''[[imdb:tt0111149|Shallow Grave]]'', in which Christopher Eccleston's character turns a flashlight on and off into his face while spiralling into insanity.<br />
*Homestar's shirt says "corporate rock still sucks", which is the motto of [[Wikipedia:SST Records|SST Records]], a favorite record label of Cobain's. Cobain once wore a shirt parodying the slogan on a famous [[Wikipedia:Rolling Stone|Rolling Stone]] [http://i.rollingstone.com/assets/rs/110/76/images/23060_lg.jpg cover] saying "Corporate Magazines still suck". Also, his shoes look a lot like [[Wikipedia:Converse Shoes|Converse]], which the video for [[Wikipedia:Smells Like Teen Spirit|Smells Like Teen Spirit]] helped to repopularize.<br />
**It's also possibly a nod to certain ''[http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/TSHIRTS/NV204.jpg Nirvana shirts]''<br />
*Homestar's line "Coach Z is down with the PE" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Public Enemy|Public Enemy]] song "Burn Hollywood Burn", wherein guest-rapper [[Wikipedia:Ice Cube|Ice Cube]] raps "Ice Cube is down with the PE".<br />
**This could be a play on words; PE could also stand for physical education, as Coach Z is indeed a coach.<br />
*The bear The Cheat has is Pooky, Garfield's teddy bear.<br />
*[[Wikipedia: Edelbrock|Edelbrock]] is a seller of performace parts for [[Wikipedia: automobile|automobiles]].<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*Marzipan's line, "You can't come to next year's party," was revisited in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], when Marzipan said, "I like your costume, Strong Sad, but you weren't invited this year."<br />
*The music that was used for the Flashlight Ghost Storytelling Using a Flashlight was used again in The House That Gave Sucky Treats and the Strong Bad e-mail [[theme park]] during "The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt Spooktacular".<br />
*A slight variation of Homestar's "Corporate Rock Still Sucks" (the motto of SST Records) shirt was worn by Strong Sad in [[geddup noise]], which said "Corporate The Geddup Noise Still Sucks".<br />
*In this cartoon in one scene you see the Poopsmith bobbing for pumpkins and grabbing a pumpkin in his mouth, which was later used as an easter egg in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] by putting a pumpkin in the Poopsmith's mouth to see Homsar.<br />

=== Commentary Transcript ===<br />
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh, Mike, listen to how you can hear your fingers hitting the keys&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Really?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;on the little&mdash; yeah. ''{pause}'' They're kinda little ''puh puh puh'' clicky&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;holding a mic up to the Casio SK-1 keyboard.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Does that not have a line out?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, it didn&mdash; it sounded crappy, I think.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It just had to go from like an 8-inch to an adaptor, et cetera et cetera.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So here's our first Halloween cartoon.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, it was a really nice ''credit'' sequence... ''Mike''.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ...Not sure why Matt is taking this tone with me, everyone!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' "Every single ''{clears his throat conspicuously}'' wanna see me."<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Ohh, interesting.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Uh, The Cheat's costume, while he looks pretty good, wasn't very involved. It's just a pair of glasses... Garfield-looking glasses.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He has a very authentic Pooky, though... ''{Mike chuckles}'' for sure.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I think the Mikhail Gorbachev still may be my favorite costume.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It's a good one.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Although ''his'' glasses don't have any, uh...<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' They're just taped to his face.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' And I think the Marzipan genie costume might be the least thought-out&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We just&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' It was the first one, but, everyone else's costumes are pretty good.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Cap'n Crunch, that's a good... Ooh, Marzipan's old mouth.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{softly}'' Ooh, the&mdash; Oh... I don't think Kurt Cobain had that stringy of&mdash; his hair was that stringy.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't&mdash; Our friend Craig made that hair.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he really? I didn't remember that. I know that Craig made the ladies, the hot ladies that show up in Pom Pom's story later on.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, he made, he made&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he make that headdress on, uh, the fruit basket headdress?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' No... I made that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh. It looks good. Oh yeah, you drew that and scanned it in, didn't you?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I think we still have the drawing of that in the old sketchbook.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So Matt one time when he was... what do you think, you were three maybe?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, nnnnyeah, may&mdash; four.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Four, probably four. It was right when we moved to Atlanta.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' There was his Halloween costume, it was this big inflatable head that you sort of have attached with this headgear of this Martian. Yeah, goblin?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He was a goblin, not a Martian, he was a gween gobolin.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Our dad was interviewing him on Super 8, and said, "What do you dress up?" ''{imitating Matt's young, high-pitched voice}'' "''A gween gobolin!''"<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It was true, man.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, Bubs has no arms, Matt!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He has no arms!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Good job, us!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Who were we fooling?!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No one! ''{pause}'' These ladies are a little risqué for the website, honestly.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Craig made them way too hot.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Especially the way that one's kinda twisting her ankle like that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, she's&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, she's funneling beers too!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' They're party girls. Pom Pom's into the party girls. ''{pause}'' I remember Melissa made all these things up and I was amazed by her improvisational talents.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{chuckles}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I don't think I&mdash; I don't think I still&mdash; I didn't really like Melissa at that time, and I was really impressed. Naw, I was kidding. I liked Melissa plenty. ''{pause}'' He hates the Goblin Gremlin, Mike. ''{pause}'' Heh, the weird King of Town voice.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;found it stride. There was really, what, like four or five different&mdash; oh, okay there was an impressive amount of different drawings, there. In my head that was a way bigger pile&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;than what I remember.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't know why&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' There's a lot of things that were invented from this cartoon: the goblin, the sad kids, that robot&mdash; the Visor Robot appeared.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The Visor Robot.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Why is it called the Visor Robot?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I dunno, I think the wiki&mdash; I didn&mdash; ''We'' didn't name it the Visor Robot, did we?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' But I ''call'' it the Visor Robot, ''{in a funny voice}'' don't I, Matt?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{in a funny voice similar to Coach Z's}'' Yeah, you do; you gotta listen to that wiki, Mike!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I like, watch the brain slide here.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I did this part. ''{pause}'' Those squashed kids look pretty terrible. ''{both laugh}'' Not even sure how that works.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, Bubs has arms again!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Good, see&mdash; he only has pointy fingers.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah, he's got ''fingers''. Yeah, Coach Z&mdash; 'Cause he says, uh, "the Furious 5", right?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I think so. Well, he was just pointing too, when he's rapping, when he says, "Coach Z is down with the PE." But, now he just has mittens. ''{Mike laughs}'' He has never shown his fingers again. Maybe those are&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He's never shown his true fingers before.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Maybe he's just wearing those on top of his mittens as part of his costume. We're really consistent, everybody! We think this stuff through ahead of time; we have a ten-year plan for the website...!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{wolf howls in the cartoon}'' Hey, that's Matt.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's me.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I do an owl, too. On the website, sound effects master, mang! Manganese.<br />

''{Cut to The King of Town, Coach Z and Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' Oh jeez, I don't know, I think I prefer his work with the Furious 5 much more. Uh, he had more street cred back then...<br />
<br />
''{Homestar walks by, and continues to do so throughout the scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, thanks for coming to my party guys. Ahh, Coach Z is down with the PE! ''{Coach Z dances to Homestar's second remark.}''<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ...ya know, I think it turned out pretty good. I mean Mom helped me do the fruit ''{gestures to hat}'', and I did the sewing—<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, lookin' good, Strong Bad. The Chiquita Banana lady, that's great!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oooh, Chiquita Ba—?! ''{shouting}'' For the last time, I'm Carmen freakin' Miranda!<br />
<br />
''{Switch to Marzipan, Strong Sad, Pom Pom and The Poopsmith, who is bobbing for pumpkins. He picks up a pumpkin and spits it into the bucket twice.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Yesterday, I was out in the garden, and I was weeding, and there was this little worm...<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Aww, everybody looks so great! ''{stops walking}'' You know, there's more punch over there, if anybody... wants any. All riiiiiight, everybody! Line up! ''{holds up flashlight}'' We're gonna play ''{clicks flashlight on and off}'' Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashliiight! ''{thunder booms}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' We should stand boy-girl-boy-girl. ''{thunder booms, organ sting}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Good one, Marzipan! That way we know it's fair!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' I get to stand next to you, Homestar.<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nope. I'm standin' next to Bubs. You get to stand next to Strong Baaad. ''{walks away}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{gasps}'' Uh! <br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Psst! ''{whispering}'' Hey, Marzipan... is my slip showing?<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, okay, okay! I'll go first.<br />
<br />
''{A circle forms around him so his picture is now an inset of a new scene.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Umm... okay! Once, there was this green gobliiiin... ''{a goblin appears}'' and um, he used to... look aroooound... ''{the goblin looks around}'' And um, I guess he did a daaance. ''{the goblin dances}'' Oh man, that was terrible.<br />
<br />
''{Homestar passes the flashlight to Bubs.}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' And, the goblin, he had a Gremlin! And he jacked it up on some fat tires, and uh, and he tuned it up on some 4.11 positrak out back, 750 double pumper, Edelbrock intake, bore over 30, 11-to-1 pop-up pistons turbo jets 390 horsepower! I mean, he had some freakin' muscle!<br />
<br />
''{Bubs passes the flashlight to Pom Pom.}''<br />
<br />
'''POM POM:''' ''{Pom Pom makes bubbling noises throughout his segment.}''<br />
<br />
''{A giggling blonde girl in a pink bikini with a Pom head appears next to the Gremlin, as well as a redhead with a blue bikini and a brunette in a leopard-pattern bikini, followed by beer and sports paraphernalia. Pom Pom passes the flashlight to Marzipan.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' One of the girls had a cute little kitten named Kitty-kitty.<br />
<br />
''{A cat appears beside the girl on the left.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' The other girl had a cute little puppy named Chris.<br />
<br />
''{A dog appears beside the girl on the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' And then the third girl was a Republican.<br />
<br />
''{A Republican Party Elephant sign appears in the hand of the girl on the Gremlin.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, brother! Gimme that! ''{snatches the flashlight from Marzipan}'' So then the robot came&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot appears onscreen, to the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;and he started vaporizing everybody with his vapor-gun! ''{the Visor Robot begins doing just that}'' And he was like "You take this, and you'd better, you, and you take this, everybody's gonna die!" And then he said, "Oh, the Gremlin! I hate the Goblin Gremlin! Bah!"<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot kicks the Gremlin over the trees.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I need to get some more punch.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad passes the flashlight to the King of Town and walks off}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oooh, oooh!<br />
<br />
''{The Visor Robot and Goblin stand across from each other and all the food appears that the KOT mentions in between them.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE KING OF TOWN:''' And there was fried fish and heavenly ham and Salisbury sundaes and globs of meringue and strawberry frosted donuts and bowls full of jelly and Klondike pudding and scrumptious fillers... and—DOO! DOO-HOO-HOO-HOO-HOO!<br />
<br />
''{All the food inexplicably disappears. The King passes the flashlight to Strong Sad and hurries off.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And so it turns out the robot had a human brain which was stolen from a kindly old man. And the children of that old man came to the robot looking for their father, and they called out to him.<br />
<br />
''{Speech bubble with an exclamation point in it appears on the girl.}'' <br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' And the robot's human brain remembered his children and his stolen life, and he was moved to tears. ''{robot starts to cry.}'' But the tears shorted out his circuits, and fried his brain. ''{Electric bolts appear on the Visor Robot's head}'' And the robot toppled over, and he crushed his children, and the Goblin, too. ''{Visor Robot falls on them and his brain comes out.}'' And none of them lived.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Bubs, Coach Z, and The King of Town crying.}''<br />
<br />
'''COACH Z:''' ''{crying}'' Oh, jeez, what a total downer! ''{they walk away, still crying}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh man, I'm outta here!<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{crying}'' That's the saddest story I've ever heard! You can't come to next year's party.<br />
<br />
''{Marzipan walks away crying, while The Poopsmith sighs deeply and also walks away.}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sadly}'' Gee... thanks for coming to my party, Strong Sad. ''{sighs, walks away.}''<br />
<br />
''{Everyone except Strong Sad leaves, and crickets start chirping. An owl hoots and a far-off wolf howls. Strong Sad clicks the flashlight on and off a few times, then the screen fades.}''<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*With nine deaths, this cartoon has a higher body count than any other cartoon on the website, including [[Teen Girl Squad]].<br />
*This is the only time we've seen Coach Z with a full complement of fingers.<br />
*Strong Mad, The Cheat, The Poopsmith, and Coach Z never contributed to the ghost story, but the Poopsmith probably doesn't contribute to the story on purpose, courtesy of his vow of silence.<br />
*This toon was "Written, drawn, and directed by Matt, Mike, and Craig". This is most likely [[Craig Zobel]].<br />
*According to [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]], the spooky trees in the background are just next to [[Bubs' Concession Stand]].<br />
*Coach Z's clock reads 3:57.<br />
*This is the first appearance of The Goblin, who has become something of a Halloween toon staple.<br />
*This is also the first appearance of the [[Gremlin]], which later has reappeared in several toons.<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*Marzipan suggests they should line up boy-girl-boy-girl. She is the only girl, making this difficult. Strong Bad crossdressing could allow him to be considered a girl, but if so he shouldn't stand next to Marzipan.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
*The birthmark on Strong Sad as [[Wikipedia:Mikhail Gorbachev|Gorbachev]] is on the wrong side of his head.<br />
*When Homestar turns the flashlight on and off for Flashlight Ghost Storytelling with a Flashlight, his face isn't illuminated any better, so much as the rest of his body is cast into shadow.<br />
*When Strong Sad turns the flash light on & off at the end, his hands do not move.<br />
*If you view the Flash file, when Strong Bad leaves and he is on the other side of the line for the screen, his mouth disappears.<br />
*If you look at marzipans mouth when she leaves, you will notice that her mouth doesent move, even though she's weeping. This also happens with homestar. When he sighs, his mouth doesnt open.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The dog "Chris" looks suspiciously like [[Rejected Characters#Trivia Time|Trivia Time]].<br />
<br />
===Real-World References===<br />
*Coach Z's opening line references the [[Wikipedia: Furious Five|Furious Five]], a pioneering rap group in the early 80's. The specific artist Coach Z refers to could either be [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Flash|Grandmaster Flash]], the original leader of the Furious Five, or [[Wikipedia:Grandmaster Melle Mel|Grandmaster Melle Mel]], who led the group after Flash's departure. <br />
*Bubs's description of the Gremlin is [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106677/quotes quoted] almost directly from the movie ''[[IMDB:tt0106677|Dazed And Confused]]''. <br />
*The [[Wikipedia:flux capacitor|flux capacitor]] visible on the Gremlin is a reference to the ''[[IMDB:tt0088763|Back to the Future]]'' movies.<br />
*Strong Sad turning the flashlight on and off is possibly an homage to the movie ''[[imdb:tt0111149|Shallow Grave]]'', in which Christopher Eccleston's character turns a flashlight on and off into his face while spiralling into insanity.<br />
*Homestar's shirt says "corporate rock still sucks", which is the motto of [[Wikipedia:SST Records|SST Records]], a favorite record label of Cobain's. Cobain once wore a shirt parodying the slogan on a famous [[Wikipedia:Rolling Stone|Rolling Stone]] [http://i.rollingstone.com/assets/rs/110/76/images/23060_lg.jpg cover] saying "Corporate Magazines still suck". Also, his shoes look a lot like [[Wikipedia:Converse Shoes|Converse]], which the video for [[Wikipedia:Smells Like Teen Spirit|Smells Like Teen Spirit]] helped to repopularize.<br />
**It's also possibly a nod to certain ''[http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/TSHIRTS/NV204.jpg Nirvana shirts]''<br />
*Homestar's line "Coach Z is down with the PE" is a reference to the [[Wikipedia:Public Enemy|Public Enemy]] song "Burn Hollywood Burn", wherein guest-rapper [[Wikipedia:Ice Cube|Ice Cube]] raps "Ice Cube is down with the PE".<br />
**This could be a play on words; PE could also stand for physical education, as Coach Z is indeed a coach.<br />
*The bear The Cheat has is Pooky, Garfield's teddy bear.<br />
*[[Wikipedia: Edelbrock|Edelbrock]] is a seller of performace parts for [[Wikipedia: automobile|automobiles]].<br />
<br />
===Fast Forward===<br />
*Marzipan's line, "You can't come to next year's party," was revisited in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], when Marzipan said, "I like your costume, Strong Sad, but you weren't invited this year."<br />
*The music that was used for the Flashlight Ghost Storytelling Using a Flashlight was used again in The House That Gave Sucky Treats and the Strong Bad e-mail [[theme park]] during "The Strong Sad Gets Decked Repeatedly Stunt Spooktacular".<br />
*A slight variation of Homestar's "Corporate Rock Still Sucks" (the motto of SST Records) shirt was worn by Strong Sad in [[geddup noise]], which said "Corporate The Geddup Noise Still Sucks".<br />
*In this cartoon in one scene you see the Poopsmith bobbing for pumpkins and grabbing a pumpkin in his mouth, which was later used as an easter egg in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]] by putting a pumpkin in the Poopsmith's mouth to see Homsar.<br />

=== Commentary Transcript ===<br />
('''Commentary by:''' [[Matt Chapman]], [[Mike Chapman]])<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh, Mike, listen to how you can hear your fingers hitting the keys&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Really?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;on the little&mdash; yeah. ''{pause}'' They're kinda little ''puh puh puh'' clicky&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;holding a mic up to the Casio SK-1 keyboard.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Does that not have a line out?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, it didn&mdash; it sounded crappy, I think.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It just had to go from like an 8-inch to an adaptor, et cetera et cetera.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So here's our first Halloween cartoon.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, it was a really nice ''credit'' sequence... ''Mike''.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ...Not sure why Matt is taking this tone with me, everyone!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' "Every single ''{clears his throat conspicuously}'' wanna see me."<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Ohh, interesting.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Uh, The Cheat's costume, while he looks pretty good, wasn't very involved. It's just a pair of glasses... Garfield-looking glasses.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He has a very authentic Pooky, though... ''{Mike chuckles}'' for sure.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I think the Mikhail Gorbachev still may be my favorite costume.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It's a good one.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Although ''his'' glasses don't have any, uh...<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' They're just taped to his face.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' And I think the Marzipan genie costume might be the least thought-out&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. We just&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' It was the first one, but, everyone else's costumes are pretty good.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah. Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Cap'n Crunch, that's a good... Ooh, Marzipan's old mouth.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{softly}'' Ooh, the&mdash; Oh... I don't think Kurt Cobain had that stringy of&mdash; his hair was that stringy.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't&mdash; Our friend Craig made that hair.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he really? I didn't remember that. I know that Craig made the ladies, the hot ladies that show up in Pom Pom's story later on.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, he made, he made&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Did he make that headdress on, uh, the fruit basket headdress?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' No... I made that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Oh. It looks good. Oh yeah, you drew that and scanned it in, didn't you?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I think we still have the drawing of that in the old sketchbook.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So Matt one time when he was... what do you think, you were three maybe?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Uh, nnnnyeah, may&mdash; four.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Four, probably four. It was right when we moved to Atlanta.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' There was his Halloween costume, it was this big inflatable head that you sort of have attached with this headgear of this Martian. Yeah, goblin?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' He was a goblin, not a Martian, he was a gween gobolin.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Our dad was interviewing him on Super 8, and said, "What do you dress up?" ''{imitating Matt's young, high-pitched voice}'' "''A gween gobolin!''"<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' It was true, man.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, Bubs has no arms, Matt!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He has no arms!!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Good job, us!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Who were we fooling?!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No one! ''{pause}'' These ladies are a little risqué for the website, honestly.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Craig made them way too hot.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Especially the way that one's kinda twisting her ankle like that.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, she's&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Look, she's funneling beers too!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' They're party girls. Pom Pom's into the party girls. ''{pause}'' I remember Melissa made all these things up and I was amazed by her improvisational talents.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{chuckles}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I don't think I&mdash; I don't think I still&mdash; I didn't really like Melissa at that time, and I was really impressed. Naw, I was kidding. I liked Melissa plenty. ''{pause}'' He hates the Goblin Gremlin, Mike. ''{pause}'' Heh, the weird King of Town voice.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;found it stride. There was really, what, like four or five different&mdash; oh, okay there was an impressive amount of different drawings, there. In my head that was a way bigger pile&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' &mdash;than what I remember.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't know why&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{pause}'' There's a lot of things that were invented from this cartoon: the goblin, the sad kids, that robot&mdash; the Visor Robot appeared.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The Visor Robot.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Why is it called the Visor Robot?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I dunno, I think the wiki&mdash; I didn&mdash; ''We'' didn't name it the Visor Robot, did we?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' No.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' But I ''call'' it the Visor Robot, ''{in a funny voice}'' don't I, Matt?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{in a funny voice similar to Coach Z's}'' Yeah, you do; you gotta listen to that wiki, Mike!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I like, watch the brain slide here.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I did this part. ''{pause}'' Those squashed kids look pretty terrible. ''{both laugh}'' Not even sure how that works.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, Bubs has arms again!<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Good, see&mdash; he only has pointy fingers.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh yeah, he's got ''fingers''. Yeah, Coach Z&mdash; 'Cause he says, uh, "the Furious 5", right?<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Yeah, I think so. Well, he was just pointing too, when he's rapping, when he says, "Coach Z is down with the PE." But, now he just has mittens. ''{Mike laughs}'' He has never shown his fingers again. Maybe those are&mdash;<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' He's never shown his true fingers before.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' Maybe he's just wearing those on top of his mittens as part of his costume. We're really consistent, everybody! We think this stuff through ahead of time; we have a ten-year plan for the website...!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{wolf howls in the cartoon}'' Hey, that's Matt.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' That's me.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''MATT:''' I do an owl, too. On the website, sound effects master, mang! Manganese.<br />

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': I hate that freakin' marshmallow.<br />
<br />
== Easter Eggs ==<br />
*If you press "r" on the keyboard when the toon is over, Homestar Runner will say something.<br />
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I hate that freakin' robot.<br />
<br />
*If you then press "f" after Homestar says the robot thing, you will get a disclaimer ad.<br />
:''{We see the yellow screen from earlier, with the Fluffy Puff Marshmallows logo, a bag of marshmallows, and a jar of mayo.}''<br />
:'''VOICEOVER:''' Fluffy Puff Marshmallows and Marshmallow Mayonnaise. Each sold separately. Comes with everything you see here. Batteries not included. Kids, don't eat nails. ''{pause}'' Is that it? Am I done? Can I go? Anybod—Anybody want to get something to eat?<br />
<br />
*'''Note:''' These Easter Eggs will only work in lowercase. They will not work if the Caps Lock is on or if the Shift is pressed down.<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*If you listen to [[HR:fluffypuff.mp3|this clip]], then you'll hear the background music for when Marshie is talking at the end. Marshie's voice is added over this track.<br />
<br />
*If you view the Flash file, there is a clickable area at the top-right corner outside the frame at the end, but does nothing.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
* When The Sad Kids turn around to face Marshie, their shadows(very faint) don't change direction.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The song that the Background Singers sing near the end is the same song that they sang at the end of the [[Fluffy Puff Commercial]].<br />
*The plates of marshmallows with various toppings are examples of [[concoctions]].<br />
*The goat sound played during 'pinner' is the same from [[Audition with Marzipan]].<br />
*"Pinner" is wearing a [[bowler hat]] and has a [[Smoking|cigar]].<br />
*A possible reason that Homestar dislikes Marshie is that he seems to have replaced Homestar as Fluffy Puff mascot, a position he seemed to hold in [[Fluffy Puff Commercial]].<br />

*The goat sound played during 'pinner' is the same from [[Audition with Marzipan]].<br />
*"Pinner" is wearing a [[bowler hat]] and has a [[Smoking|cigar]].<br />

''{Strong Bad reads the sender's name as "Andy, H-S-I-A-O and sometimes Y, from Taiwan."}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Look Andyman, my age is a closely guarded secret, protected by a sect of closely guarded monks high atop the Coches Mountains. ''{clears screen}'' They would no sooner dance with a goat than divulge my age. But they ''will'' bake you some crustly guarded bread! Anyways, whattaya mean I look old? Are you telling me the nightly nacho cheese masks aren't working?<br />
<br />
''{As he says this, cut to a shot of Strong Bad in the bathroom, looking in the mirror. His face is covered in nacho cheese, and he then covers his eyes with two corn chips, with jalape&#241;o slices on them. Cut back to the computer.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I can't have the young peoples thinking I'm old! Am I really losing the youth vote? This calls for an EMERGENCY MARKETING MEETING!!!<br />

''{Zoom out to a full view of Strong Bad.}''<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{echoing voice-over}'' This is not a drill.<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{echoing voice-over}'' Whaaa-donk. Click-click-click-click-click-click-click. This is not a drill.<br />
<br />
''{Bubs leaves the concession stand and walks off. Cut to Strong Bad at a desk. There is an easel in the background holding a piece of paper labeled "EMERGENCY MARKETING MEETING!"}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Thank you all for coming on short ''such'' notice. You represent the best, the brightest, the people I hate the least. 'Cept you, Marzipan. You're here because of legal reasons.<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Word booty!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Now what I need is an image overhaul. Something to reconnect me with the youth of today. Something that says&mdash;<br />

''{Zoom in on the easel, the front piece of paper is moved away, revealing a badly-drawn picture of Strong Bad on a skateboard and another person on roller skates, with the caption:}''<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Youth through editing, huh? I'm on board, I'm not bored. So, how would it work?<br />
<br />
''{The Cheat hits a button on a remote control, and plays a remixed version of the email. Behind everything is techno music consisting of a drum track and occasional The Cheat noises. Several quick repetitions of Strong Bad bringing up the email play, with the tilt angle changing and zooming in on the screen further on each one. Cut to a shot of Strong Bad's head.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Didgeri&ndash;dear&mdash;<br />

''{Cut to an extreme close-up of Strong Bad's eyes, moving across the screen.}''<br />

''{Cut to a side-on shot of Strong Bad at the computer desk, with the left side of the screen mirrored onto the right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' You really do look old.<br />
<br />
''{The last two lines of the email on the computer screen slide into the top third of the screen, Strong Bad's hands on the keyboard slide into the bottom third, and a closeup of Strong Bad's eyes slides into the centre third.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Your faithful fan&mdash;<br />
<br />
''{The top and bottom thirds slide away, revealing the rest of Strong Bad's face.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;from Taiwan.<br />
<br />
''{Pan across Strong Bad's hands on the computer. As he types, "<tt>]Look Andyman,</tt>" appears in large letters along the top of the screen.}''<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' Look Andyman,<br />
<br />
''{Slowly zoom in on the computer screen, tilted at an angle, as Strong Bad types.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' My age is a closely guarded secret,<br />
<br />
''{Tracking lines appear and the shot rewinds to just after "Look Andyman," was typed, as the preceding line plays in reverse. Then a split-screen shot, in all four corners is the same shot of Strong Bad, each with a different color tint &ndash; red in the top left, yellow in the top right, green in the lower left and blue in the lower right.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Anyways&mdash;<br />

''{A normal shot of Strong Bad typing.}''<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;old?<br />
<br />
''{A close-up of the electrical outlet under the desk. Then static, and we return to Strong Bad at the emergency marketing meeting. Disorienting sound effects play in the background, and Strong Bad is having trouble looking straight.}''<br />
<br />
'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh... The Cheat... I don't know whether to puke or have a seizure...<br />
<br />
''{A piece of paper is put on the easel, with silhouettes of Strong Bad throwing up and seizing, labeled "STYLE 1" and "STYLE 2". Cut to Bubs, who has a folder labeled "'''GOO'''<del>BA</del>D IDEAS"}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' Well, I've been noticing how kids love anything with a lowercase "i" in front of it. It's working great for me down at the Concession Stand!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the concession stand, on the desk there is a sign reading "<del>1</del>0% OFF ALL iTems!" Pull back to see Homestar Runner and Homsar standing in line. The bottom line of the marquee reads "STAND [IN LINE]"}''<br />
<br />
'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{to Homsar}'' Hey, Homestar. What color iTem are you gonna get?<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the meeting}''<br />
<br />
'''BUBS:''' We could try iStrong, or iBad...<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' We already tried that with lowercase "e"s back in the late '90s. We all know where that got us.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to a large number of boxes, all labeled "eStrong Vague Online Investments". The wind can be heard blowing through, and Gavin crawls in.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Next.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to Marzipan.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' I came up with a few ways to spruce up your look, and add hundreds to your resale value.<br />
<br />
''{Marzipan pulls out a piece of paper with a diagram of Strong Bad's head on it.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{monotone}'' I am legally obligated to ask you to proceed.<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' Thanks.<br />
<br />
''{Zoom in on the diagram of Strong Bad's head. As Marzipan suggests changes, they appear on the diagram.}''<br />
<br />
'''MARZIPAN:''' First we're gonna start with a flagstone path leading up to your chin, right here. Then we'll fill the negative space around your head with Forsythia and maybe some Alberta spruce. And last, we install a water feature right here, ''{Strong Bad's forehead}'' which I think will create a great focal point for entertaining summer guests. ''{some outdoor tables and a deck chair appear}''<br />
<br />
''{Cut back to the meeting.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, this'll work great, Marzipan. ''{dashes up to Marzipan}'' If I was a ''BACK YARD''!<br />
<br />
''{As he shouts this, a strong wind blows out of his mouth, blowing Marzipan's hair around and rippling her cheeks.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Next.<br />
<br />
''{Strong Mad pulls out a card, labeled "were a diper"<!-- [sic] -->, a diaper decorated with pictures of Nebulon, hanging from the middle from what is labeled "dupp tape"<!-- [sic] -->, and pictures on the right of "grass", "rocks" and "mounds".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG MAD:''' WEAR A DIAPER!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh, nice try, bo-hwee-moth, but that's a little younger than I was looking to go. These are all terrible ideas! What am I not paying you people for, anyway? It's time to resort to extreme measures. With Gene Hackman. It's time for a lace lift!<br />
<br />
''{A new piece of paper lands on the easel, with a diagram of the back of Strong Bad's head, an arrow pointing away from the shoelace knot at the bottom of the laces, and the caption "PULL THOSE SUCKAS TIGHT".}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat! Strong Mad! Prep for surgery!<br />
<br />
''{Cut to the lounge room, Strong Bad, Strong Mad and The Cheat enter from above wearing surgical gowns and masks.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, on three.<br />
<br />
''{Cut to behind Strong Bad, Strong Mad is holding the shoelace knot.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' One... Two... Aah!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Mad pulls the strings, deforming Strong Bad's head, and stretching out all of his facial features. His mouth is severely stretched, and his speech is mumbled and subtitled.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, yeah. I feel at least 10 years younger. Time to go relate to some 18-24 year olds!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad walks to the dining room, making Homsar's walking noise, where Strong Sad is sitting staring at a plate of food with some peas and corn which he has lined up neatly.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hello, my fellow young parson! ''{The subtitles read "What's up, my fellow young parson?"}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, hey Great Grandma. When did you get here?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm not Great Grandma. I'm a young person, like you. I eat my yogurt from a tube.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{smiling, amused}'' That's right! You eat ''everything'' through a tube! Well, let's get you back to the home.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Wait! I'm a hip young person!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' Yes, I saw your new hip! It looks great!<br />
<br />
''{Strong Sad leads the protesting Strong Bad out of the room.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{slowly fading away}'' Why don't you tell me again about the time the Depression fought Abraham Lincoln naked in your front yard?<br />
<br />
''{The Paper comes down.}''<br />
<br />
==Easter Eggs==<br />
[[Image:Strong Bad's Age.png|thumb|A closely guarded secret]]<br />
*When Strong Bad is talking about the sect of closely guarded monks, click on the words "closely guarded monks" to see the The Three Keepers of Trogdor from [[Peasant's Quest]] standing around a chest in brown robes atop a mountain with lightning in the sky.<br />
* Click on "crustly guarded bread" to see a sample of [[Crustly Guarded Bread|the bread]].<br />
* Click on the diaper to see a plane fly across the top of the screen with "WEAR A DIAPER!" towed behind it.<br />
* At the end, click on the fork to see Homestar in the eStrong warehouse:<br />
:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{echoing voice}'' I'll take it! I'll take ''twelve''!<br />
<br />
==Fun Facts==<br />
<br />
===Explanations===<br />
*A [[Wikipedia:Rhytidectomy|facelift]] is a [[Wikipedia:Cosmetic surgery|cosmetic surgery]] procedure where excess skin is removed from the face, to remove wrinkles.<br />
*"H, s, i, a, o, and sometimes y" refers to the Latin [[Wikipedia:Vowel#Written vowels|vowels]], which are commonly listed as "a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y".<br />
*''"Chai"'' means "[[Wikipedia:Chai|tea]]" in [[Wikipedia:Hindi|Hindi]], [[Wikipedia:Macedonian language|Macedonian]] and [[Wikipedia:Russian language|Russian]] and "[[Wikipedia:Chai (symbol)|living]]" in [[Wikipedia:Hebrew language|Hebrew]]. "[[Wikipedia:L'Chaim|L'Chaim]]" is a Hebrew toast meaning "to life." Chai tea is a type of strong black tea from the Middle East, primarily India, that is boiled in milk and water. A blend of spices and a large amount of sweetener (usually honey or plain white sugar) is added. The tea Marzipan drinks is also certified [[Wikipedia:kosher|kosher]], meaning that it meets Jewish dietary guidelines.<br />
*The "nightly nacho cheese mask" appears to be a type of [[Wikipedia:facial|facial]]. Usually, [[Wikipedia: avocado|avocado]] is used. Avocados are the main ingredient in [[Wikipedia:Guacamole|guacamole]], another popular chip dip.<br />
*Strong Bad not knowing whether to "throw up" or "have a seizure" after seeing the Cheat's editing is a reference to [[Wikipedia: Motion sickness|motion sickness]] caused by the rapidly changing viewpoint, or an [[Wikipedia:Photosensitive epilepsy|epileptic]] [[Wikipedia:seizure|seizure]] caused by the flashing colors.<br />
*The word "[[Wikipedia:Behemoth|Behemoth]]", as it is used in this email, refers to any very large person, animal or object. It derives from the name of a creature mentioned in the book of Job in the [[Wikipedia:Bibles|Bible]].<br />
<br />
===Trivia===<br />
*The floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#drakkhen|drakkhen]]".<br />
*This is the first time the Strongs' [[Parents|great-grandmother]] is mentioned.<br />
*This is the first email explicitly sent from Asia.<br />
*There was a 43 day delay between this email and [[what I want]], probably caused by the holidays.<br />
*This is the first email that was put in [[New Stuff]].<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
*During the Cheat's remixed version of the intro, clicking on the Lappy's screen will still produce the usual distortion effect.<br />
**However, on some shots, the distortion effect is dimmer than usual.<br />
**It doesn't work when there are closeups that point explicitly to Strong Bad's [[How Do You Type With Boxing Gloves On?|typing]].<br />
*This email contains another example of [[Strong Sad Smiling]].<br />
*Strong Bad's skull is bigger than the normal shape of his mask.<br />
*Early in the email, Strong Bad's pants are drawn in an old style.<br />
<br />
===Goofs===<br />
[[Image:Looking Old Goof.PNG|thumb|"Yes, you eat ''everything'' through a tube."]]<br />
*When Strong Bad says "18-24 year olds", the side of his mouth floats off of his head.<br />
*When Strong Sad says "Oh, hey Great Grandma. When did you get here?" his mouth is not properly synched to the word "here".<br />
*When Strong Sad is walking "to the home", his closed mouth is visible under his round mouth.<br />
<br />
===Glitches===<br />
*When Marzipan closes her eyes, you can see a dot flash near them. This is because she blinks every four seconds or so, and with her eyes closed, she attempts to blink over her closed eyes. (Her usual closed eyes use a bigger area than that used in the email.) The effect can easily be observed if the email is paused while her eyes are closed.<br />
**This also occurs in the email [[marzipan]].<br />
*When the "Wear A Diaper" airplane flies by, it pauses for a split second. This is due to the sound file for the airplane being loaded.<br />
<br />
===Inside References===<br />
*The music that plays when Strong Bad summons his "marketing staff" was used in [[candy product]] when he described the [[SBLOUNSKCHED! Bar]].<br />
*The background "nausea" sound effect heard after The Cheat's editing presentation is the same as the one used in [[car]], when Strong Bad punches Homestar, and in [[Biz Cas Fri 2]], when Homestar shows up to work, possibly hungover.<br />
