[edit] Results

[edit] If at least one girl survived

STRONG BAD: Man, that was terrible on an epic scale. If all cave paintings were like that, we'd never have made it past the... dirt age. Negative twenty points. The secret to a funny comic is timing. And wiping out a bunch of teen girls, of course, but mostly timing.

[edit] All four girls died

STRONG BAD: Ugh, something that unfunny should stay buried in a cave. No points. The secret to a funny comic is timing. And wiping out a bunch of teen girls, of course, but mostly timing.

[edit] One girl died a major death

STRONG BAD: Hmm, not bad, but it's still nothing for the vandalized history books. Eighteen points.

[edit] Two or three girls died a major death

STRONG BAD: All right, now we're drawing a crappily drawn civilization. Forty-one points.

[edit] All four girls died major deaths

STRONG BAD: {laughs strongly} That's good stuff, man. Let's see those stupid cro-magnons try to top that! Three hundred fifty-eight points!

STRONG BAD: Now that was a work of perfection that will stand the test of time! Six thousand points!

GIRL: Dear-Ogg,-want-to-go-on-date? {The girl stops writing} Do you spell "Ogg" with two snakes, or a guy with a bear head?

MAN WITH 2 LINES SYMBOL: IT'S TWO SNAKES!!!

{The symbol-character throws the two lines at the girl, which then turn into an anaconda, which promptly eats the girl.}

{The Hunter throws a spear through the girl.}

NARRATOR STRONG BAD: SPEARROWED!!!

{The girl dies and is unselectable after this point.}

[edit] Wheel

[edit] Any girl other than So-And-So

NARRATOR STRONG BAD: ENVIRONMENTAL MESSAGE!

[edit] Scene 2

{The shopper (the one not holding corn) aims the gun at the storekeeper (the other man).}

GIRL: Whoa, take it easy there, big fella! We're all in the same tribe, here.

SHOPPER: Where's the rest of the corn, Snooky? You holdin' out on me?

STOREKEEPER: C'mon, T-Bone, I got goats to feed, angry gods to appease!

SHOPPER: Appease this!

{The shopper fires the gun. He blows the storekeeper's arm (with the corn) off, and shoots the girl.}

NARRATOR STRONG BAD: CROSS-FYAH!

GIRL: AHHH! {she starts speaking quickly} Remember when we was kids and we used to play on the playground and it didn't matter what tribe we were in or how much corn we had or who our chief-- {she speaks normally again} aw, never mind.

[edit] Fun Facts

[edit] Explanations

  • Tar pits are large holes filled with tar, in which prehistoric animals were killed and preserved when the tar hardened. Archaeologists frequently study extracted remains from such pits, as they are some of the best preserved bodies of prehistoric life.
  • Saber tooth tigers and woolly mammoths are both extinct, presumably because of an inability to adapt to environmental changes.
  • A meteor crashing into the Earth is one of the most well known theories as to why the dinosaurs became extinct.
  • E=mc2 is the equation for mass–energy equivalence, usually associated with the theory of relativity, proposed by Albert Einstein.
  • A domesticated species is one that has been bred for traits preferred by humans and is now genetically distinct from its wild cousins. Dogs were domesticated over 15,000 years ago.
  • A "n00b" is an Internet Slang insult.
  • π*R squared is the equation for the area of a circle.

[edit] Remarks

  • The Teen Girl Squad idea card for Thomas says "Alien" rather than "Thomas".
  • Cheerleader's hair is colored yellow, but So-And-So's hair (also yellow, as seen in Teen Girl Squad Issue 10) is not.
  • While there was an Egyptian hieroglyph that used a snake (to represent the J sound), there is no hieroglyph that uses two.
  • It is a common misconception that the Pyramids were built by slaves. It is more likely possible that they were built by trained professionals who had better endurance and would not make a mistake.
  • Cheerleader references the trope of cavemen and dinosaurs being depicted in fiction simultaneously when in fact humans did not exist until dinosaurs were long extinct.

[edit] Goofs

  • Lizard The Ugly One doesn't wear The Ugly One's glasses, but they still fly off in the Charles Darwin scene.
  • In scene 4, idea cards will go under the lizard TGS's heads.

[edit] Inside References

  • The Anubis scene mentions "wearing animal heads" in Teen Girl Squad Issue 3, and, indeed, Cheerleader wore an elephant head.
  • "Ogg-erson" is another case of -erson.
  • This cartoon uses the word phat.
  • "Spearowed" refers to a previous episode featuring the death "sparrowed".
