  {a tattered scrap of brown paper appears, with The Poopsmith drawn on it, along with the words "200 email curse", "legend tells...", "The Poopsmith", and "old parchment"}

  NARRATOR: Legend tells that every 200 sbemails The Poopsmith would break his vow of silence—

  {the drawing changes to The Poopsmith holding a micrphone and wearing a bowtie. The words "Well, well, well, my Michelle..." are added.}

  NARRATOR: —and croon anew.

• At the end, click on the "O" in "Strong" to see a scene with Limozeen.

  LIMOZEEN: Congratulations Strong Bad on your {a voice interrupts, loudly saying:} 200th {voice ends} email!

  {slight pause}

  LARRY: {startling the other bandmembers} WE'RE FROM {the voice cuts in again} THE YEAR 2008!

  PERRY: Uh, I think it says that at the top of the screen, Larry.

  {the words "it is 2008!" appear over the Limozeen logo)

  LARRY: WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!

  {The band members strike various poses and the frame freezes, as the ending riff from "Brain Sister" plays.}

• At the end, click on the "A" in "Bad", to see more with Strong Bad's soda.

  {Strong Bad continues to pour Mountain Dew on the Happy. Homestar walks in.}

  HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ooh, cool. How did you get it to do that? USB? Four pins? Eight pins? Firewire? {muddying the word with his speech impediment} Fouloul? I bet it was Foul Owl. {walks out again}

• At the end, click on the "A" in "Emails" to bring up a pop-up to download the "200 Emails" song by They Might Be Giants.
• At the end, click on the "S" in "Emails" to see a scene with Strong Sad.

  {Strong Sad is giving a review on his review show, "Review Revue"}

  STRONG SAD: In his shocking 200th episode, Strong Bad turns the entire series on its ear. Will we ever see a 201? Is the reign of HREmails at hand? For the answers to these questions, be sure and not check out my blog. I haven't updated that thing in years!

• This is another email featuring Mountain Dew.
• The Easter egg with Limozeen is lifted directly from flashback.
• The Easter egg with Strong Sad refers to Strong Sad's Lament, which, true to Strong Sad's words, hasn't been updated since September 5, 2005.
