Transcript

STRONG BAD: {muttering} ow-mnow, mnow, mnow... ow-mnow, mnow, mnow... {stops muttering}

Dear strong bad,
my brothers are always telling me that your 
legs are made of tape, is that true?
-Nicolas

STRONG BAD: Nee-CO-las. {typing} They said my legs were made of tape?! WHAT?? I mean, do I look like some kind of tape-leg? I can guarantee you, man, I am not a tape-leg.

{Strong Bad stops typing and lifts his leg up, where we can see a piece of masking tape on the bottom of his shoe.}

STRONG BAD: I mean, look at this leg. Look... look at it there... Oh wait a minute, what's that on- OH, there's a little piece of tape on my shoe!

{Strong Bad removes the tape, and lowers his leg.}

STRONG BAD: {typing} That's what they were probably talking about. Yeah. You probably misunderstood them, man. No, they probably said I had tape on my leg or my shoe and you thought they said that my leg was made of tape. My leg is not made of tape. Pfffph! I must've just stepped on an innocent piece of tape...tape. {stops typing} Alright, so until next week send me some good ones. You know, some GOOD ones.

{The Paper comes out and it says "Click here to e-mail strong bad", click on the text to email him.}
