STRONG BAD: Oh-you-thought-there-was-no-more-emails-but-guess-what-there's-an-EMAIL!
{reading email}
Dear Strong Bad,
I want to start a new website but I
don't have any ideas of what to do for
my website. I was wondering if you
could give me some ideas for my new
website. This website will be cool and
I'll e-mail you when I'm done.
Sincerely Yours:
James
{Strong Bad says "Website. I mean, James" instead of just "James"}
STRONG BAD: {typing} You know, James, I've been around this great, big Internet of ours a few times, so I know what I'm talking about, and I can safely say, that whatever idea you have is completely unimportant as long as you adhere to these fundamentals: {clears screen} First of all, you want to start out with a long Flash intro. {stops typing} Like this one The Cheat made for me.
{"The Cheat presents" on a black background appears on the screen, followed by two green, bean-shaped eyes.}
STRONG BAD: Check it out, those are supposed to be my eyes, I think.
{The eyes fade and the letters "SB" appear. "Strong" and "Bad" are inside each letter}
STRONG BAD: that stands for my name.
{The "S" and "B" turn into "The Web" in cursive}
STRONG BAD: The Web.
{"The Web" turns into "Welcomes 'u' '2'" with only letters going horizontally and vertically. The words "strong bad's cybersite" appear in red below "Welcomes 'u' '2'". A rainbow circle about 3/4 the size of the "2" comes and rolls in, stopping at the quotation mark before the "2"}
STRONG BAD: That little rainbow thing's kinda cool.
{The word "cybersite" turns into rainbow colors. The words exit and a blackhole-like thing appears.}
STRONG BAD: Oh, go through the tunnel, oh look out!
{As he says "Oh, look out!", a hand appears to punch you, and after it does, the word "OUCH!" appears above it. The words "Get on in!" appear in a long button.}
STRONG BAD: Oh, you got punched! Aw, man, right in the face. {typing} Okay, next on the checklist: lots of animated GIFS! {pronounces it /gifs/; stops typing} or... GIFs... {pronounces it /jifs/} or however you say it. I don't know. I heard a couple of nerds arguing about it one time. But you want as many of those as possible. Especially the rotate-y kind. Those are awesome, man. Nobody gets tired of looking at those. {typing} So, then you can pretty much just pick whatever for your subject. It doesn't really matter as long as you got the rest of that stuff on there. {stops typing} I mean, {resumes typing} James, the Internet is a place where absolutely nothing happens. You need to take advantage of that. {stops typing}I mean, you can make a webpage of your cat.
{A picture of a cat lying on a football with red eye thinking "It's 4th and 10. Now WHERE'S MY SUPPER?!?" appears}
STRONG BAD: or your The Cheat.
{A picture of The Cheat sleeping on a couch on his back on a couch thinking "It's 4th and 10. I hate cats."}
STRONG BAD: And, {typing} Who knows? Maybe tomorrow you'll be really big in Pakistan. Or at least, with some guy named Stan. {Stops typing}Anyways, I gotta go work on my webpage.
{Strong Bad leaves. The Paper comes down}

Fun Facts
Explanations
- The reason Strong Bad says, "Oh-you-thought-there-was-no-more-emails-but-guess-what-there's-an-EMAIL!" might be because fans thought the emails would stop because the previous email ended with the Compy 386 in a "flagrant system error."
Trivia
- The cat featured in the email is Mabel, owned by Matt Chapman and his wife Jackie.
Remarks
- The "get on in" Flash link during the email itself is clickable, but doesn't do anything.
- At the end of the e-mail Strong Bad says he has to go work on his web site, but then he leaves his computer.
Fast Forward
- According to "flashback," this is where Strong Bad lost count of the emails.
DVD Version
- Strong Bad's website isn't browsable on the DVD. However, the intro to his website is still accessible (via a hidden Strong Bad icon in the lower right corner of the Compy 386 screen).
- Note that the DVD version of the intro is out of sync—Strong Bad begins talking long before the animation ends.
