Transcript
STRONG BAD: How many emails can you check? 5, 12, 7, shut up.
{reading}
subject: extra coolDear Strong Bad,
My new lady fan does not like you so much. Should I
just call it quits now or can you do something extra special
cool to impress her?
Buck Webb
Houston, Tejas
{Strong Bad reads "Houston" as "Hooston".}
STRONG BAD: {typing} Buck Webb? You sound like one of those boring soap-opera comic strips from the, {stops typing} quote, un-quote, {resumes typing} "funny" pages.
{An example of a boring soap-opera comic pops up. It is titled "Buck Webb, Extrordinaire".}
BUCK: I'm afraid it's Splittsville for us, Lady Fan... if you don't put the shine on Strong Bad.
LADY FAN: Oh, Buck...
{Cut to the next panel. Lady fan is holding a gun up to Buck.}
LADY FAN: I'll give Strong Bad a chance. In fact...
{Cut to next panel, of a turtle in a pool, with the caption "Sea turtles eat a wide variety of food".}
LADY FAN: ... I think I'm falling for him. Like, big time.
BUCK: C'mon, baby. Stay with me.
{Next panel. Buck is holding a yoga DVD.}
BUCK: I'll buy you a new yoga DVD.
{Next panel. Lady fan is crying and there is a caption "Back in Des Moines..."}
LADY FAN: I'll... think about it.
Easter Eggs
- Click the scoreboard after Strong Bad calls one-handed push-ups lame to see a blue bumper sticker that says "Real Men Play Two Handed Push-ups!!" with a small image of a soccer ball in the corner.
- At the end, click on the printer's green button to see Homestar's weight-loss DVD, titled "Tweesercize".
Fun Facts
Remarks

Real-World References
