STRONG BAD: Ooh, my pal! {typing} Well Palbert, it's a good story. And now you all have to hear it.
{Cut to flashback of Strong Bad in the basement with a sack acting all mysterious.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Seems I was looking for a place to hide all my Aztec gold. But when I made the first incision, not only did I realize that I don't have any Aztec gold, {bag falls open to reveal it was full of oil filters} but I unleashed a stench of biblical proportions.

{Cut to Strong Sad standing next to Strong Bad at the computer.}
STRONG SAD: Now wait a second! That's not how I remember it
STRONG BAD: Oh, and I'm sure every loser out there wants to hear your loser opinions, loser.
STRONG SAD: They do!
{Cut to flashback of a young Strong Bad in the basement}
STRONG SAD: {voiceover} I seem to remember a young Strong Bad thinking that Olympic sprinter Carl Lewis was a woman. And that he was hot!
{Young Strong Bad writes "Strong Bad LUVS Carla Lewis!! and thinks shes hott!!" with a Sharpie on the couch.}
STRONG BAD: That is entirely untrue.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Lies! All lies!
{Cut to Homestar standing behind Strong Bad.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Clearly I'm the only one who remembers how it all went down.
{Cut to flashback of Homestar laying on the couch in the basement.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {voiceover} It was not so long ago that I was in Strong Bad's basement spitting Teddy Grahams all over the place. One of them got stuck to the ceiling.
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} Homestar, shut up! This is about that patch on the couch. It's clearly already on there in your flashback.
{Cut back to the two Brothers Strong and Homestar at the computer}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh oh ohhhhh. I thought this week's e-mail was entitled "Teddy Graham Memories."
{Cut to shadowed "This guy's voice has been digitally altered" interview session}
MYSTERIOUS PERSON {Clearly Coach Z}: No, no. I got the real scoop. Strong Bad had me over for Gumbo one night, and I don't know what kind of doodoo meat he was using in there, but I had to puke!
{Cut to flashback of Coach Z's shadow in the basement}
COACH Z: {voiceover} So I went downstairs and I noticed this little rip in the couch, so I puked in it!
{Coach Z's shadow pukes in the couch. Cut back to interview session}
COACH Z: {voiceover} I... I'm sorry for what I done!
{Cut back to Strong Bad in front of the computer}
STRONG BAD: {typing} I liked that gumbo! I didn't use no doodoo meat. If I ever find out who that guy is... Well, palbert, there's your answer. Me? I'm gonna go over there.

STRONG BAD: {not typing} Oh wait! {typing} make homestar's head explode.exe
{The computer responds with "No can do." The camera pulls back so we can see Strong Sad and Homestar again}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: No can do.
STRONG BAD: Oh crap! this computer is worthless.
{Zoom back to just Strong Bad and the computer. Strong Bad now gets up and leaves. The Paper comes down.}
