{The note reads "i am sick. —homestar runner"}

{Canned laughter}

MARZIPAN: I'd better go check on him. {heads offscreen to Homestar's house}

{Enter Strong Bad, The Cheat, and Strong Mad with a wagon}

STRONG BAD: Okay, get the vegetable!

{Canned booing}

STRONG BAD: Now let's cheat it!

{They throw the radish on the wagon and leave}

{Cuts to Marzipan at Homestar's house. She knocks on the door with her head.}

MARZIPAN: Ouch. Homestar Runner, are you OK? {knocks with head again} Homestar, are you in there? It's me, Marzipan!

{Canned laughter}

{Cuts to Strong Bad, The Cheat and Strong Mad, wagon and radish in tow.}

{Canned booing}

STRONG BAD: Oh man you guys, with Marzipan's radish, we're gonna win the competition, and then, maybe get uh, famous...a little...

{Canned laughter}

{Cuts to Homestar Runner and Pom Pom and a stage with a banner that says "Reddest Radish"}

ANNOUNCER: Ladies and gentlemen, the competition will begin in 15 minutes. Please bring your radishes to the staging area.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Pom Pom, where's Marzipan? She's supposed to be here!

{Cuts to Marzipan, still at Homestar's house. She knocks with her head}

MARZIPAN: Ouch. Homestar, let me in.

{Knocks again}

MARZIPAN: Ouch. Homestar Runner, are you in there? {Pause} I'm leaving. {Leaves}

STRONG BAD AFTERIMAGE: Holy crap!

{Canned laughter and the after images rush off. The radish is still flying through the air.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Hey, that radish is Marzipan's!

STRONG BAD: Out of the way, Homestar!

{The radish lands and they all fight over it in a cloud of dust. The dust clears, the villains are on the ground, stood over by Pom Pom and Homestar is on the stage with the radish}

{Marzipan enters}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Look Marzipan, I got the Reddest Radish back from Strong Baaaaaaaaaaad!

MARZIPAN: What on earth are you talking about? That's not the Reddest Radish! This is!

{Marzipan pulls out a gargantuan red radish. Homestar falls off the stage, and Pom Pom falls to land sideways. Laughter. Marzipan stands on the stage with her radish and a first prize trophy}

MARZIPAN: I'm the winner!

{Canned laughter}
