Transcript

{Homestar is seen cutting out dough rings in Marzipan's Kitchen. Marzipan Enters}

MARZIPAN: Oh, that's sweet! Are you making me homemade donuts for the 16th anniversary of our 17th breakup?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Um, no. No way. Um, no way. You know how I've always dreamed of being my own boss at the donut factory!

MARZIPAN: No, since when?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Why, just last night! {Homestar appears in his dream wearing a shirt with the Mexican flag on it and only one leg} I dreamt that I was a french long-jump champion with eight wooden legs!

MARZIPAN: And that made you want to start a donut shop?

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yes sir! Like I said, It's a boyhood dream of mine. Could you pass me that recipe?

MARZIPAN: {Picks up a small note from the table} There's just this square of TP that says "dog-nut" on it."

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, yeah. That's it. My secret recipe.

MARZIPAN: {Sighs} I'm gonna go talk to anyone else but you.

{cut to The Field. Homestar is a cardboard box marked "Do-Nots". Fat can be seen bubbling in the back.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I honestly wonder how many million donuts I'll sell on my first day? Three? Four? Eight? I've gotta be ready for the 3:09PM donut rush, you know? Ooh, here it comes.

{Bubs, with a red face enters from the right}

BUBS: Well, helloo Hoomestar.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Hey there, donut rush. What can I get for you?

BUBS: It's really great to very see you Hoomestar.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Uhhm it's good to see you, too, I guess.

BUBS: I'm delighted you've decided to set up shop about ten feet away from me.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, we could be a conglomerate, like KFC Taco Bell Raddison Texas Instruments NASA.

BUBS:Yes. That is a really outstanding ideeeaaaa.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Um, Bubs? Are we in a fight?

BUBS: Why you think that? You opened up a competing donut right across the street from me

{Cut to a single shot of Bubs and his face is blue again.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: The street?

BUBS: Right across the way from me.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: But I thought you sold questionable medical coverage.

BUBS: That was 2 hours s ago. Now I'm in the donut business. How's that coverage working for you, by the way.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Great so far!

BUBS: I gotta go get ready for the big 3:09PM donut rush when next we meet, 'twil be on the donut field of battle.

BUBS: {singing/marching} dubba dup dup dup dubba dup dup dup

{cut to a shot of a clock that strikes 3:09. Cut back to a shot of Bubs' Concession Stand and Homestar's Do-Not, when the The King Of Town poofs in with a puff of smoke.}

KING OF TOWN: Ooh. All right gentlemen, here's how this is gonna go down. I need fried dough so bad it hurts! According to the chatter{?} I got back from Taco Bell NASA, we're gonna need in the 3 to 8 million range to maintain my caloric intake now, commence marketing bombardment.

HOMESTAR RUNNER:

BUBS: Mine's a shipped from a 3rd world country named homa modday, so i can legally print from "HomemAde" on the prepackeged package.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I've got great gumption and an adorable speech impootaboot

BUBS: My name's bubs, I talk hard and fast.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Available in over 57 different varieties!

BUBS: One flavor, over a hundred different names for it

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Marzipan raves "Hey! Get outta my kitchen, you!"

BUBS: Fights cavities! Cleans Teeth! The American Dental Association does not approve of the preceding statements.

KING OF TOWN: All right all right all right. You both make excellent cases, but I've come to my decision.

BUBS: Health Inspector!

{Bubs closes his stand}

KING OF TOWN: Ooh! {he disappears}

{Strong Bad, in silhouette, is seen coming up and walks towards Homestar with a clipboard in his hand.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Hey potential customer, would you like several million donuts?

STRONG BAD: No, I don't want one.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: But do you don't not want one? Hmmm?

STRONG BAD: I'm the health inspector, here to hopefully shut you down. Now rub this swab under your grease trap and bring it back.

{Homestar takes the swab and rubs it on the fat fryer.}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yes sir, inspectoree. {Homestar starts humming}

STRONG BAD: and.. a little bit of THIS! {Strong Bad puts a note marked "F" on the side of Homestar's stand and pushes it over.}

{cut to a long shot of Homestar's overturned stand in silhouette, with smoke rising from it}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ah! My face!

STRONG BAD: {laughs and walks away}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: My face! Bubs, is this covered by my questionable medical coverage... at least questionably so? Bubs?

{Bubs opens the back of his stand and is seen sneaking away}

BUBS: dooot droot dooba doop doop doop

Fun Facts

Remarks

Top: Blubbo's Commercial, with outside to .swf file. Below: Donut Unto Others, with no outside to .swf file (save for a black background).
  • When viewing the flash file, this toon does not not have any viewable areas aside from the actual toon.
  • Trivia Time is shown in the kitchen.

Inside References

  • Homestar claiming he was a French long-jump champion is another instance of French. The flag he wears in his dream is actually the flag of Mexico.
  • Strong Bad smiles in this short.
  • The King of Town appears from hammerspace.
  • In the scene where Bubs and Homestar are marketing their donuts to the King of Town, the music playing is from No Hands On Deck.
  • This is the first time when we see bubs's face in a different color.
    • When his face goes from red to blue there is a thin line of red till his face is all blue.

Real-World References

Homestar hums part of the theme to Inspector Gadget while swabbing his fat fryer, likely in reference to Strong Bad referring to himself as a health inspector.
