<div>subject: prom</div>
Dear Strong Bad, <br />
I was wondering did you ever have a senior prom.<br />
If so, what was it like?<br />
Matt M. WA
</blockquote>

''{Strong Bad says "walrus association" for WA.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oh, man! Would you Walrus Association people please leave me alone? I will pay my dues when you send me my tusks! ''{clears screen}'' Anyways, I have personally never had a senior prom, Matt. I have, however, ''crashed'' my fair share of Senior Proms, Senor Proms, Homecoming Dances, Shortcoming Prances, and Off-Site Team-Building Pottery Classes. But the best Senior Prom I ever crashed was the 'Entrapment All Up On the Moon' Dance. It all started one day, when I received some very disappointing news...

''{Cuts to the Floppy Disk Container side of the computer desk with Strong Mad and The Cheat. A cassette tape sits on top of a [[clock radio]]. The message 'an answering machine (trust me)' is taped to the clock radio, keeping the hour number open as if it was the message counter.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{feigning disappointment}'' Oh man you guys... I'm totally bummed. Listen to this message I just got...

''{Cut to a closeup of the clock radio.  Strong Bad is partially visible on the left, holding one of his boxing gloves up to his mouth and looking away.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{in a high-pitched voice}'' Hey... Bunmuffin... It's Deli...lelia. They need me to go back up to Mars to help out that robot that got stuck in the sand. So I won't be able to go to the dance with you.

''{Cut back to the group shot.  Strong Mad and The Cheat look annoyed, and The Cheat's arms are folded.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still in fake voice}'' I left you some cold meatloaf under the fridge. ''{voice returns to normal, but he continues to feign disappointment}'' Ooh...

''{Cut to close-up of Strong Bad}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{feigning disappointment}'' That little robot's stuck in the sand ''again!'' I guess I don't have a date for the dance.

''{Cut back to group shot.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{speaking normally}'' Oh well... Looks like you two losers ''{Strong Mad looks shocked and then angry}'' and me one cool guy will just have to crash the ever-loving style out of it! Now listen close to my mastardly plan!

''{Fade to black, then cut to and zoom in on [[All the King's Men|All the King's Men]]'s bass drum, then fade to the band on stage.  Cut to a banner reading "Entrapment All Up On the Moon", then pan down to Homestar and Marzipan dancing on the gym floor.  Homestar is wearing a tuxedo and a black propeller cap, and Marzipan is wearing a red formal dress and her hair is now curled.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh... Don't look now Marzipan, but I think we're the hottest couple at the prom. 

'''MARZIPAN:''' Homestar, as always, we're the only couple at the prom.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' But what about Strong Sad and Deborah?

'''MARZIPAN:''' That is unmistakably<!-- This word is currently spelled correctly, stop wronging it up! --> Coach Z.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Who?

''{Cut to the drink table where Coach Z is pouring Listerine into the punch. Coach Z is wearing a [[Wikipedia:Dickie|dickie]] and bow tie and Strong Sad is wearing a space suit.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' Coach Z, you oughta be ashamed of yourself.

''{Coach Z fumbles and drops the Listerine.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' You're supposed to be our ''chaperon<!-- "chaperon" is the male form, please don't change it to "chaperone". -->!'' ''{says with a French accent while waving his hand}''

'''COACH Z:''' Are you kiddin'!? I'm just lookin' out for all yer hygienes. Have ya ever talked to one of these kids up close!? Their breaths is ''terbirle''<!--{sic}-->! 

''{Someone turns off the light, plunging the scene into pitch darkness. There is a thud sound and a record scratch. Everyone at the prom gasps.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Hey! Watch those hands, David Coppafeel!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, David!

''{The lights turn back on, revealing Strong Bad, The Cheat and Strong Mad in the center separating Homestar Runner and Marzipan. Homestar continues to dance while Strong Bad speaks.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' That's right, senior citizens! This prom is officially crashed! Now peep my mastardly plan! I rigged up this button&mdash;

''{Cuts to a close up of Strong Bad's hand, which is holding a remote control with a big red button labeled "GO!"}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' &mdash;so that when I mash go on it, everybody's pants will POOF AWAY! It's a mass pantsing, see?

''{He presses the button and the [[DELETED]] buzzer sounds.}''

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{The Cheat noises}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' What!?

''{With dramatic music, the scene quickly cuts to the pants area of Marzipan, then Coach Z, and then really quickly Homestar Runner, Strong Sad, The Poopsmith, The Blacksmith, The Knight, Strong Mad, The Cheat, before finally stopping on Strong Bad. He is apparently the only one at the prom wearing pants. The camera scrolls up from Strong Bad's pants to his head.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' You gotta be kiddin' me! I'm the only one that wears any pants?!

''{Strong Bad's pants poof away, showing white boxers with lipstick kisses on them.}''

'''THE ANNOUNCER:''' And now to announce your Prom King and Queen! This year's Prom King is... Pom Pom! ''{applause}''

''{Cut to an area of the gymnasium that features the banner and cut-out forms of Nebulon and The Moon.}''

'''VOICEOVER:''' ''{spoken words appear onscreen}'' Accepting the award for Pom Pom is Homestar Runner because Pom Pom's at a much cooler private school prom.

''{Homestar walks out wearing a crown and then takes a swig of Listerine and starts gargling, sounding exactly like Pom Pom.}''

'''THE ANNOUNCER:''' ''{Cut to an excited Marzipan}'' And your Prom Queen is... Strong Bad ''{Marzipan looks bewildered}'' with no pants on! ''{applause}''

''{Cut back to Homestar. Pant-less Strong Bad walks in from the left wearing a tiara and holding seven roses.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh thank you so much! ''{applause}'' You people are a sweet delight! Just one big almond paste filled sweet delight!

''{Homestar leans forward, kicking his foot backwards. Cut back to an angry Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Every freakin' year. ''{blows one of her bangs out of her face}''

'''VOICE FROM OFFSCREEN:''' Ohhhh, yeah!

''{Marzipan looks surprised, it then cuts to the rest of the gym, who all gasp. Then it cuts to The Poopsmith who shakes his head and shrugs his shoulders. Cut back to Strong Bad at the Lappy.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' And the best part, was that I also got a twenty-dollar gift certificate to the All-You-Can-Eat Old Folks' Cafeteria. Man, I ate my weight in creamed fish and okratinis. Alright, I gotta get outta here. I'm taking Delilelia to see David Coppafeel perform. ''{gets up and leaves}''

''{Cut to a shot of the whole computer desk with Strong Bad standing to the side.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' Hurk! ''{jumps offscreen}''

''{Cut back to the Lappy. [[The Paper]] comes down.}''

*At the end, click on "Delilelia" to see the actual beginning of the email. It is also worth noting that his song resembles [[Crack Stuntman]]'s '[[an important rap song]]'.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*A senior [[Wikipedia:Prom|prom]] is a formal dance held at the end of the final year of high school (around the time of year that this email was produced), chiefly in the [[Wikipedia:United States|United States]].  Musical entertainment, refreshments, and adult [[Wikipedia:Chaperon|chaperons]] are often present at these events.
*An "[http://listserv.linguistlist.org/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0308c&L=ads-l&D=1&F=&S=&P=6102 okratini]" is a martini served with a pickled [[Wikipedia:Okra|okra]] pod instead of an olive.
*"Summat" is regional English slang for "something." 

===Trivia===
[[Image:kotvoqpcs.png|Let the king have some!|thumb|right]]
*The filename for the SWF file is the expected "sbemail151", but the HTML file is "kotpoptoon" and the HTML file "sbemail151.html" does not exist.
**The email was [[Main Page Messages|announced on the main page]] as a new toon as a prank; when it was released the message button read "king of town toon!"
**Later in the week, the button was changed to "Strong Bad Email".
*The label on the disk in the Floppy Disk Container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#broderbund classics|broder bund classics]]".
*This is the first time The Blacksmith<!--Yes, Blacksmith. The Poopsmith has appeared in MANY toons in the past six years. Please do not change this.--> has appeared in any Homestar Runner cartoon since his debut in [[The King of Town DVD]] six years previously.
*The Strong Sadstronaut was previously seen in the weekly [[Sketchbook 2006#SK-2006-03-30|Sketchbook]].
*[[Nebulon]] appears as one of the decorations at the dance.
*[[The Moon]] on the banner first appeared in [[Mr. Shmallow (toon)|Mr. Shmallow]].

===Remarks===
*Strong Bad is wearing boxer shorts when his pants poof off. However, in [[New Boots]], he claims he doesn't wear "[[Underwear|underwears]]."
*Assuming Strong Bad's button worked the way it was supposed to, and Homestar was not telling the truth in the Easter egg, he was not wearing pants. This further adds to the mystery of [[Homestar Runner's Pants]].
*Since an okratini is a drink, Strong Bad could not have ''eaten'' his weight in them, unless he consumed the okra pods.
*When Strong Bad addresses the audience and compares them to an almond-paste-filled sweet delight, he is describing the real confection of [[Wikipedia:Marzipan|marzipan]].
*Although it was stated in [[highschool]] that all the characters looked different in high school, all the characters appear as they would normally. This may be due to Strong Bad's "doodle memory", though it may also be, considering their ages are neither implied nor stated, that they are still ''in'' high school. However, in the short toon [[On Break]], Strong Bad states that he, Homestar, and Coach Z are grown men.
*Marzipan implies that the characters attend the prom each year, despite the senior prom being a once-in-a-lifetime event for most high school students.
*The band performing is named "''All'' the King's Men". However, [[The Little Chef Guy]] and [[The Cleric]], who first appeared with the rest of the king's men in [[The King of Town DVD]], are notably absent from the band.
*In this email, Strong Bad's imaginary girlfriend's name is spelled "Delilelia". However, in the following [[Quote of the Week]], it was spelled "Delelilia".
*Mastardly is a [[portmanteau]] of master and dastardly.
*After Marzipan says "Watch those hands, David Coppafeel" and the lights come on, Strong Mad is the only character whose hands are near her.

===Goofs===
*When the scene is focused on Strong Sad and Coach Z, it can be seen that the table is on the blue mat. However in the following far shot, it is on the wood.
*In the Easter Egg, right after Strong Bad brings up the email, his head doesn't move, even when he reads the first half of the introduction.
*When the scene is focused on Strong Sad and Coach Z, the scoreboard is at the far right of the screen. Then, when the lights cut out and the scene focuses on Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat, the scoreboard is in the exact same place even though the camera has zoomed out.

===Fixed Goofs===
*When the email first came out, right before Marzipan says "That is unmistakably Coach Z", her eyes showed up where her mouth should have been.

===Glitches=== 
*When Homestar keeps his eyes shut while standing next to de-pantsed Strong Bad, his regular pair of blinking eyes appears every few seconds beneath his already closed lids.

===Inside References===
[[Image:Poopsmith spokemaybe.png|thumb|What does The Poopsmith need with a mic, anyway?]]
*The lipstick pattern on Strong Bad's shorts is the same as the one in [[video games]].
*"Senor proms" is a reference to the common [[Senor|mispronunciation]] of Se&ntilde;or, and is further highlighted by the Senor Cardgage Easter egg.
*In this email, Coach Z makes a [[concoction]] by spiking the punch with [[Listerine]].  Coach Z was previously seen drinking Listerine in [[The Best Decemberween Ever]].
*Strong Bad previously fabricated a story about a girl leaving him to go to another planet in his [[autobiography]].
*This email makes some references to [[robots]].
*In the Easter egg, Homestar Runner's stubborn insistence that he was wearing long pants at the prom is a reference to [[long pants]], an email in which Homestar goes crazy after Strong Bad accuses him of not wearing any pants.  This email also deals with [[pants]] in general.
*This is another instance of [[mashing]].
*Strong Bad uses a [[single-button remote control]].
*The name of the dance is "Entrapment [[All Up On]] the Moon".
*While it isn't certain that "Ohhh Yeah" was spoken by The Poopsmith, a similar voice was used in [[different town]] to demonstrate what he would sound like.
*Strong Bad last expressed a desire for tusks in [[animal]].
*Strong Bad claimed he crashed his fair share of Shortcoming [[Prancing|Prance]]s.
*The "missing" email song is similar to that of [[radio]] (both mentioning "email style").
*Strong Bad plans to "crash the ever-loving [[style]] out of" the prom, as well as singing about "e-mail styles."
*The "okratini" and Coach Z's spiking the punch bowl with [[Listerine]] are references to [[alcohol]].
*Strong Bad becoming the Prom Queen is an example of [[gender confusion]].

('''Commentary by:''' [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]], and [[Ryan Sterritt]])

'''MATT:''' Don't believe it for a second, you guys!

'''MIKE:''' I wish I ''could'' believe it, unfortunately! ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''RYAN:''' Sounds like a good show.

'''MIKE:''' I know, it would be good. I think there's definitely gonna be&mdash; have to be a laugh track, if we ever make this... 

'''MATT:''' Make it like a sitcom...

'''RYAN:''' ''Three's Company''.

'''MIKE:''' It's all the uh... the Chef&mdash;

'''MATT:''' The Chef and the&mdash;

'''MIKE:''' and the Blacksmith

'''MATT:''' &mdash;Blacksmith and the S&mdash; the Scribe. ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' Is there&mdash; does he have a scribe? What do we call him? 

'''MATT:''' The Bishop? The Clergyman?

'''MIKE:''' Oh, the trumpeter guy? I don't know what we call him.

'''MATT:''' No, what's the religious guy called?

'''MIKE:''' Oh, I call him the... Clergyman, I think.

'''MATT:''' The Cleric?

'''MIKE:''' The Cleric.

'''MIKE:''' Anyways, as Strong Sad said...

'''MATT:''' That's Strong Bad, Mike.

'''MIKE:''' Whi&mdash; now, which&mdash; who are you?

'''MATT:''' I'm Mike.

'''MIKE:''' Oh, okay.

'''MATT:''' This is Brian.

'''MIKE:''' Alright.

'''RYAN:''' Brody, Brian.

'''MATT:''' Strong ''Bad'' is the wrestleman.

'''MIKE:''' Mm-hmm. Alright.

'''MATT:''' Did you go to any of your proms, Ryan, in high school?

'''RYAN:''' I went to senior prom.

'''MATT:''' Did you?

'''RYAN:''' 'Cause I had a tux from Jazz Band.

'''MATT:''' Oh, nice!

'''RYAN:''' Get closer.

'''MIKE:''' Say that again. I had a tux&mdash;

'''RYAN:''' I... I went to prom.

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' He had a tux from Jazz Band! 'Cause he's a jazz man!

'''RYAN:''' "Mr. Jazzman," they called me. ''{pauses}'' Did you guys go to prom?

'''MATT:''' Uh, I did not. Oh, uh, I went to junior prom. Yes.

'''RYAN:''' J. P.

'''MATT:''' And uh, I went to&mdash; I think I wore a shoulder holster. I was dressing up as a Reservoir Dog for junior prom. And I wore a shoulder holster underneath my suit. No gun in it, but just&mdash;

'''MIKE:''' Probably couldn't get away with that now.

'''MATT:''' &mdash;probably get you expelled, and ''{laughs}'' sent to Homeland Security. ''{laughs}'' Do high schools have their own office of Homeland Security?

'''MIKE:''' I think so.

'''RYAN:''' Color codes.

'''MATT:''' Y&mdash;you can either go to the clinic, or you can get sent to Homeland Security. ''{pause}'' Oh, portmanteaus! -tooks. Portmantooks. ''{pause}'' Oh, Ryan. ''{pause}'' Your cousin, Marvin Berry!

'''MIKE:''' Is that the tuxes that they're wearing?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, pretty much the same as&mdash; I don't know what that band is called, in ''Back to the Future''.

'''MIKE:''' Marzipan's hair looks pretty good there, doesn't it?

'''MATT:''' Yeah, done up! Marzi.

'''MIKE:''' But it doesn't look like her ponytail seems to be the same size, so I don't know where the rest of that hair is coming from&mdash; 

'''MATT:''' It's extensions.

'''MIKE:''' I guess it's all extensions, yeah.

'''MATT:''' See, Strong Sad dressed up in a costume to go to the prom, just like I did!

'''MIKE:''' What is the deal with those flap things that old-timey tuxedos... 

'''MATT:''' I don't know! They're always in cartoons, and like somebody can't keep it tucked in from smackin' 'em in the face.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah! I feel like it's in maybe some ''Three Stooges'' or something! But what is it?

'''MATT:''' I dunno.

'''MIKE:''' Why couldn't they just wear a shirt?!

'''MATT:''' It can roll up&mdash; I can roll up like a shade, though, apparently, and go ''{imitates a shade spinning around}'' right underneath your... ''{pauses}'' Poof away! [[Little Girl]] one time said that clouds poof away.

'''MIKE:''' If&mdash; if you tried to lift a cloud it would poof away.

'''MATT:''' ''{in response to Strong Bad's pants being poofed away}'' Oh! ''{pauses}'' I feel like when we were writing this, that we&mdash; we wrote this at the time when we&mdash; we got to this point and we're like, "Oh, wait. Yeah, Strong Bad's like kinda the only one that ''has'' any pants on"&mdash;

'''MIKE:''' Yeah!

'''MATT:''' &mdash;and we hadn't decided that in advance; we didn't quite know what was gonna happen.

'''MIKE:''' That was always the case: it seemed like if you went to a&mdash; ''didn't'' go to your own prom, but went to some other school, preferably a pr&mdash; a private school, prom, it was&mdash;

'''MATT:''' Yeah.

'''MIKE:''' &mdash;you had some hot girlfriend that nobody else knew that probably didn't exist&mdash;

'''MATT:''' &mdash;and maybe you were hanging out in your basement by yourself that night... You were at the ''private'' school prom!

'''MIKE:''' Oh, watch this. Watch her poof her ha&mdash;hair.

'''MATT:''' Oh!

'''MIKE:''' That's sh&mdash;

'''MATT:''' What&mdash; Wait, hey, was that The Poopsmith? Nun-uh, "I don&mdash; I don't know!" says The Poopsmith.

'''MIKE:''' I think that was the Blacksmith, probably.

'''MATT:''' Yeah? ''{in a deep, raspy voice}'' Oh.

'''RYAN:''' The Cleric.

'''MATT:''' ''{In the deep, raspy voice}'' Oh, yeah. ''{laughing, in his normal voice}'' It was definitely the Cleric. ''{pauses}'' Um, creamed fish sounds disgusting. Do you think we can get some creamed fish upstairs at Piccadilly, you guys?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. Okratinis sound pretty good, though.

'''MATT:''' Yeah. We're headin' up there. Coppafeel. ''{pauses}'' Oh! ''{in response to Strong Bad's jump offscreen}''

''{laughter}''
