Transcript

{We are presented with a silent view of the Lappy, Strong Bad apparently absent, and the following email is on the screen.}

{Cut to a view of Strong Bad's desk. Strong Bad is severely ill and curled up into a ball under the table, coughing and shivering. An empty box of tissues that reads "Tish, You!", lies next to him along with a mess of used up tissues. }

STRONG BAD: {coughing} The Cheat! Get in here with my puke pail. {coughing} And bring me some tissues. Lots more tissues!

{Homestar walks in from the right of the screen with a thermometer in his mouth and an obvious look of sickness}

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Strong Bad, my burps smell really bad. Check this out. {making breathing noises} Hang on.

STRONG BAD: Ugh. Go away. I can't smell anything anyways.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, I'm betting you can smell these!

STRONG BAD: Yeah, well you're lucky it's your burps that smell. DO NOT go into Strong Mad's room. Or, as I've taken to calling it, Rotten Egglünd.

{Cut to outside Strong Mad's room. The door is covered with police tape that reads "Quarantine!". There is a green haze coming out from the bottom of the door.}

STRONG MAD: {from inside} SOMEBODY HEEEEELP!

{Cut back to Strong Bad and Homestar in the Computer Room.}

STRONG BAD: Ugh. The Cheat! What's taking so long with my tissues?

THE CHEAT: {in a green bucket that reads "Puke Pail for Him!"} (crying noises)

STRONG BAD: {coughing} Oh well. I guess I'll just re-use some of these already re-reused ones. {grabs a tissue} Ow! They're pointy now!

HOMESTAR RUNNER: Strong Bad, I don't think you're going to be able to answer your word problem this week. So I'll take one for the team. Two trains enter a tunnel going four miles per hour. {As he talks, pictures of two trains, a tunnel, and the number 4 appear to his left.} At what time do they reach Poughkeepsie?

STRONG BAD: {groans and coughs while speaking} The Paapeeeer!

{The Paper comes down, with a distorted noise. It appears crinkled and says "Strong Bad, I can't come in today."}

STRONG BAD: Oh no, not you too! Can I blow my nose on you?

{The Paper goes back up.}

Easter Eggs

Rotten Egglünd
  • Click on the word "healthy" at the end of the toon to see a short scene with Strong Sad.
{Strong Sad is laying in his bed. His face is green with spots and he has pink around his eyes. The rest of his body is normal.}
STRONG SAD: {groans} This is the greatest day of my life. I feel like a few dollars.
  • Click on the word "Crap" at the end to see a map of "Rotten Egglünd".

Fun Facts

Remarks

  • Homestar has the wrong end of the thermometer in his mouth. The bulb is what should go in his mouth.
  • The quarantine tape over Strong Mad's door goes across the doorknob as if the doorknob were two-dimensional, or completely flat.
  • The bags under Strong Bad's eyes disappear when he lifts his head. They reappear later when he squints again.

Goofs

  • Clicking on the Lappy's screen did not cause the screen to ripple.
  • The bags under Strong Bad's eyes disappear after he asks The Cheat for his tissues for the second time, therefore making him look healthy.
  • When Strong Bad's eye bags disappear, the tint of his face changes.
  • After Strong Bad throws away the tissue, his hands stop twitching for the rest of the scene.
Armless Strong Bad
  • When Strong Bad reaches out for a tissue, he has no arm connecting to his glove.
    • This happens again when he hurts himself on the pointy tissue.
    • His arm usually wouldn't be able to stretch far enough to reach the tissue.
  • When we zoom in to Homestar answering the "word problem," the desk behind him disappears and the shading changes. When we zoom out, the designs on the wall move.

Real-World References

  • "Here Comes Sickness" is a song by Mudhoney.
  • Poughkeepsie is a city in New York located in the Hudson River Valley between New York City and Albany.
