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

- 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.
- Strong Bad also pulls the F slip out of 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.
