STRONG BAD: {singing} Girl, where's my money that you owe me from all those emails that you wrote me?
subject: love poemI am in love. Unfortunately, I am absotively blunderous with
my words which I speak. Will you help me write a love poem?
Sincerely,
Just Another Hopeless Romantic
{Strong Bad reads "Hopeless" as "homeless".}}
STRONG BAD: {typing} Well, put on your patchy-stained jacket and gather 'round the fire in the trashcan, 'cause the Rub [Doctor] is here to help!
{Cut to the classroom, where Strong Bad is standing in front of the blackboard with a charcoal grey sweater and balding brown hair. Written on the blackboard next to an arrow pointing to Strong Bad is the word "Rub"}
STRONG BAD: Hi. I'm Doctor Marvin Rubdown. Did you know that writing love poems is as easy as telling a girl she's hot with the fance-pantsiest words you can think of? {cut to a view from Strong Bad's front-left} For poetic inspiration, I like to swipe the names of scented candle fragrances!
{Fade out. Fade in to Strong Bad, still with the sweater and hair, in front of a grey background.}
STRONG BAD: Your eyes, {holds up a lit orange and green candle with a label saying "Sandalwood Sage Sunset" in his left hand} they flicker like a Sandalwood Sage Sunset. {puts his hand back down.} Your hair is like Fresh Cotton Linens {holds up a lit white candle with a label saying "Fresh Cotton Linens" in his right hand} hung to dry on the deck. {puts his hand down, holds up a lit brown candle with a label saying "Grandma's Apple Cinnamon Spice" in his left hand} Grandma's Apple Cinnamon Spice is the scented candle I would use to describe your mouth. {puts his hand back down} And your nose. Like an unscented emergency candle {holds up a white, unlabeled candle in his left hand} for when the power goes out.
{Cut back to the classroom}
STRONG BAD: Another way of fancying up a love poem is to replace random letters in the middle of words with apostrophes.
{Cut to a closeup of the blackboard; the "Rub" and arrow have been erased but remain faintly visible.}
STRONG BAD: {as he speaks, the words in quotes appear on the blackboard in chalk} "It is never ever over, my lover of clover" becomes "'Tis ne'er e'er o'er, m'lo'er o' clo'er".
{Cut to a closeup of Strong Bad; Coach Z is leaning in from the right}
COACH Z: Now you're sporkin' my language!
STRONG BAD: Get out! {Coach Z leaves quickly}} Women love it when you talk all Elizabethan. {"-Elizabethan" appears to the right of Strong Bad.} But you shouldn't be afraid to get Kimberlian {"-Kimberlian" appears under "-Elizabethan"} or Meredithian {"-Meredithian" appears under "-Kimberlian"} if the need arises.
