STRONG BAD: Must...check...emails...
dear strong bad,
do you ever feed the ducks? personally i think feeding
the ducks is the greatest thing in the world. what are
your thoughts on this subject?
your friend,
ron kiwi
STRONG BAD: {clears screen, typing} Unfortunatley, Mr. Kiwi, there are no ducks by my house. But I do have a pretty sweet duck pond simulator for my computer. Check it out, man.
{Strong Bad types "run “duckpond”", which loads up a game of Duck Pond. It features two ducks swimming around the screen with a hand on the left side of the screen. Strong Bad presses a button and the hand throws a piece of food at the ducks.}
STRONG BAD: {trancelike} Wow, you're right, Ron. {throws another piece of food} This is the {throws food} greatest thing in the world. I mean it's like I'm right there at the pond. Come here, ducky.
{The Paper comes down, featuring another link reading "Click here to play “Duck Pond”".}
Easter Egg
- By feeding either duck 10 times, you'll unlock an Atari version of the game. Before you play, Strong Bad gives his opinion of it.
- STRONG BAD: Whoa, man, these graphics are state-of-the-art...graphics...
Fun Facts
Remarks
- Feeding the ducks is a British slang term. The "Emailee" could be associated with British slang, or could just enjoy going by the pond.
- When you finish the "state of the art version," it takes you right back to the beginning of the email.
- You used to be able to play the "state of the art version" just like the Tandy version. However, you can't do this anymore.
- This is the first email with an Easter egg that is accessible directly in the Flash file.
Goofs
- This email is missing the glare in the upper-left corner of the computer screen that is present in other emails.
- Strong Bad spelled "Unfortunately" as "Unfortunatley" in his reply to the email.
- For a split second, duck 2 comes out of the computer.
- After the intro to the Atari version of Duck Pond, the email starts itself over automatically.
- Feeding a duck during Strong Bad's Intro to the Atari version of Duck Pond does not give you any points.
Glitches
- When the Atari 2600 version of the Duck Pond game is starting, pressing the Space Bar will make the duck animation behind the title replay.
DVD Version
- The game Duck Pond is not playable in the DVD version for obvious reasons.
- As well, if you click on the hidden Strong Bad head near the bottom of the Tandy's screen, it takes you straight to a short demo of the Atari 2600 version of Duck Pond.
