==Transcript==
''{Black text on a white background: "10 years ago..."}''

''{Then the cover of the second book zooms in "The Homestar Runner In: Where My Hat Is At?" "A Book Story"}''

''{The book opens to the first page of the original book, with a crudely drawn Homestar in a star}''

'''CAPTION:''' Everyone loves the Homestar Runner.  He is a terrific athlete.

''{crossfades to a modern Homestar (sans hat) in a green star on a blue background.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' If there are two things I know about the Homestar Runner, it's that everybody loves the him ''and'' he's a terrific athlete. 

''{page turn to reveal Marzipan sitting on her couch, and Homestar coming in screen left}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' All right, Marzipan! I'm off to the big game!

'''MARZIPAN:''' Hey, where's your hat, Homestar?

''{close-up of Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'm sorry, I couldn't understand what you just said.

''{close-up of Marzipan}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{annoyed}'' I said, "Where's your hat?".

''{reverse to Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, you're not even speaking English at this point.

''{reverse to Marzipan}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{sighs, resigned}'' I mean, where your hat is at, Homestar?

''{reverse to Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, good question! Without my hat, I won't be allowed to play in the ''big'' game.

''{cut to a shot of Marzipan and Homestar}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{annoyed}'' Well good! Then you can start mowing the lawn and&mdash;

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Let's look under the couch!

''{Homestar lifts the end of the couch, tossing Marzipan}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{screams}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It isn't under the couch.

''{page turn to reveal Homestar standing next to the [[TeeBee]] in his living room, wearing a monocle.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{faux British accent}'' Or, on top of the teleset, gov'nor!

''{push wipe from the bottom: close up of Homestar on a spinning blue background.  The words appear as he says them.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Where my hat is at?

''{cut to Homestar emerging from the pool wearing a snorkeling mask, displacing a beach ball.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whew! It's not in the pool. ''{closer shot}'' But I did find this Strong Sad brand concrete block! 

''{Strong Sad appears, encased in cement, with both of his eyes bloodied}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Thanks for saving me, mister!  Can I obsess over you now?

''{zoom out to reveal Strong Bad and The Cheat standing on the side of the pool, wearing fedoras.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Of all the dumb luck in the woild!

''{page turn to reveal Homestar opening the lid to The King Of Town's grill, revealing a piece of meat.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' It isn't cooking on the grill? ''{reverse}'' Man, I really thought it'd make complete sense if my non-edible hat would be cooking on a food grill!

''{push wipe left: Homestar on the blue background}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Where my hat is at?

''{cut to Homestar at a mailbox, wearing a driving cap.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Bangers and mash! It isn't in the post box either!

''{page turn to Homestar underneath a red car in the garage}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Or under this auto that I always all the time drive around. ''{pause}'' And call an auto.

''{push wipe left: Homestar on the blue background}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Where my hat is at?

''{cut to Homestar standing with Pom Pom on a pitching mound.  Pom Pom has a cap on and is holding an 8-ball.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Go on, Pom Pom, just gimme your hat.  ''{close up Homestar and Pom Pom.  Homestar leans on Pom Pom}'' Everybody knows I've got bigger game than you.

''{cut back to the wider shot}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh! How about a trade? You let me borrow your hat, I let you borrow my jock.

'''POM POM:''' ''{angry bubbles}''

''{Pom Pom throws the 8-ball at Homestar, who flees screen left.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, never mind!

''{page turn to close up of Coach Z in the locker room}''

'''COACH Z:''' You lost a prat of your uniform!?

''{wider shot of Coach Z and Homestar, who is looking embarrassed}''

'''COACH Z:'''  Well, it's like I always say. A man's uniform ''{cross fade to [[The Chalkboard]], which has a hat drawn on it and is embellished as Coach Z speaks}'' is like a temple, wherein he keeps his ''{slowly, confused}'' uniform when he's not using it. ''{"torchdown?" <!--yes torchdown-->  appears on the chalkboard}''

''{Chalkboard is pushed up to a two shot of Coach Z and Homestar.  Homestar looks annoyed.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Um, are you suggesting that my hat is inside my hat?

'''COACH Z:''' No, I'm suggesting that&mdash;

''{close up of Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well good, 'cause I already looked and it's not there.

''{page turn to Bubs' Concession Stand.  Homestar is standing outside, and the sign reads "Candy"}''

'''BUBS:''' Shrug. I haven't seen it! ''{close-up of Bubs}'' Nobody's tried to sell me any stolen hats this half hour!

''{cut back to the wider shot.}''

'''BUBS:''' ''{lifts up Marzipan's pony tail}'' I do have this stolen wig, though.

''{page turn to The Umpire and Homestar, standing at home plate}''

'''THE UMPIRE:''' If you can't find your hat, you're not allowed to play in the ''big game''!

''{close up of Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{annoyed}'' Um, yeah, we sorta established that in the first scene. ''{happier}'' But thanks anyway.

''{page turn to Homestar kicking a soup can}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{distraught}'' Looks like I won't be able to play, then.

''{cut to a shot of Homestar walking down a road, with his shadow reaching towards the horizon and sky gradually turning to orange.}''

''{cut to Homestar in his kitchen next to the refrigerator.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{sadly}'' I could really go for a few Cold Ones right about now.

''{reverse shot from inside the fridge, with hat in the foreground}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hmm, it feels like something is strange here... but I can't seem to put my finger on&mdash;

''{cut to Homestar with the swirling blue background}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{excitedly}'' <u>There</u> my hat is at!

''{cut to a slow zoom to the hat in the fridge}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Right between the milk and the Colden Ones.

''{cut to wider shot of Homestar at the fridge.  Homestar takes out the hat, closes the door and puts the hat on his head.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I must've left it in there when I put my hat in the fridge. ''{Homestar comes close to the camera}'' If I hurry, I can still make it the ''big game''! ''{Homestar runs off screen left}''

''{cut to a silhouette on a yellow background of Homestar running while drinking a Colden One}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Glug glug glug glug glug glug glug.

''{cut to Homestar coming in screen right in front of The Umpire.  Homestar leaps onto home plate.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Safe!

'''THE UMPIRE:''' Uh, what are you doing?

''{close up of Homestar}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I found my hat just in time to score the winning run.

''{close up of The Umpire}''

'''THE UMPIRE:''' ''{annoyed}'' Uh, no, actually it's the bottom of the second, your team's down by 94 points, and you just illegally ran onto the field!

''{wider shot}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Get this, it was between the milk and the Cold Ones!

'''THE UMPIRE:''' Yeah, yeah, you need to head back to the dugout before I toss you out of here, buster!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Man, Mr. Umpire, you sure have a funny way of pronouncing&mdash;

''{push wipe down; Homestar in a green star on a blue field.  Homestar pulls out The Local Newspapes.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Homestar Runner's team wins!

'''THE UMPIRE:''' ''{off-screen}'' Yeah, you're suspended from the league. ''{Homestar looks disappointed}''

''{black screen with white text: "here the end is at!"}''

==Easter Eggs==
*If the spacebar is pressed during the cartoon, you will be able to flip between the cartoon and the corresponding page from the book.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*[[Wikipedia:Bangers and mash|Bangers and mash]] is a traditional British dish of sausages and mashed potatoes.

===Trivia===
*Homestar's mouth is in the same shape as in the book when he says "Where my hat is at?"
*This is the second tenth anniversary remake of a book, the first being [[Strongest Man in the World]]. In both cases, the conclusion is changed from the original book, but Homestar still expects the original conclusion to take place.
**Homestar's opening lines mimic what he said at the beginning of [[Strongest Man in the World]].
*Almost all of the scenes of the cartoon are taken directly from the original book. A few images are different, however. For example, the refrigerator contents are in a different order in the cartoon. Also, the meat on the grill is a ribeye in the book and a t-bone in the cartoon.

===Remarks===
*The text on [[Hanging Objects#Marzipan's House|the picture hanging above Marzipan's couch]] has been changed from "Thank You" to "You're Welcome".
*Coach Z's emblem has been changed to match the original book. The "Z" has an upward, curved point on the top left-hand corner.
*Homestar [[Fourth Wall Breaks|breaks the fourth wall]] by calling the first scene "the first scene."
*There is a large clickable area just outside the frame to the top-left corner of the screen. Clicking it doesn't seem to do anything.
*Homestar somehow had a colden one on his way to the game, but never actually gets one out of the refrigerator. He also does not seem to have it at the game.
*It seems that the sun is setting as Homestar walks down the road, but the sky is light again once he leaves his house.
*When Homestar is kicking the can of soup, the word "soup" is always right side up, even when the can is upside-down.
*Homestar's "auto" has no doors.
*The fact that [[Pom-Pom]] has a snucer ball is a refrence to the comintary of [[Search of the Yello-dello]]

===Goofs===
[[Image:hs disattached head.png|thumb|[[disconnected]], Homestar edition?]]
*As Homestar takes his hat out of the fridge, his head is not entirely attached to his body for a couple of frames.

===Inside References===
*The loading screen features [[cheese]].
*Strong Bad pronounces "world" as "[["Er" pronounced as "Oi"|woild]]".

*[[Frozen Bake]], a food first seen in [[Twenty THANXty Six]], can be seen in Homestar's fridge.
*Homestar has a [[Cars|car]]<!-- pipe neccessary --> in this toon.
**His [[Blatant Lies|claim]] that he uses the car all the time despite the fact it has never been seen outside of the book is a reference to [[keep cool]], where Strong Bad made the claim that he uses a certain pool all the time despite the fact that it hadn't been seen since the [[Theme Song Video]].
*Homestar is seen [[Kicking a can|kicking]] a [[can of water soup]], and the Old Timey theme music plays, making it a specific reference to [[Kick the Can]].
*Homestar is seen drinking [[Colden Ones]].
*"Where my hat is at?" is an example of a [[non-inverted question]].
*Homestar's line after diving in the pool references his dive in the blue family recreation water in [[mini-golf]].
*At the end of the toon, Homestar holds up "[[The Local Newspapes]]".
*Homestar looked under the grill assuming [[Eating Non-Food Items|his hat was being cooked]].
*Strong Bad and The Cheat try to [[Strong Sad's Death|drown]] Strong Sad.
